As we grow old, we are bound to have an experience, which we wish, never happened. In any case, the true meaning of life is difficult to understand. The first thing that strikes us is a feeling of disbelief. We can`t accept the fact that our friend (or someone closer), is no more.
We think it was like yesterday, when we spent time together, he/she was looking so fit & in good shape. But sooner, rather than later, the reality dawns on us. I know its terrible but think of their family members, think about what would be happening to them!
It's never too late to learn how to word a condolence message
No matter, how bad you are feeling, the first thing which you should try to do is think of ways, with which, you can help the deceased`s family. Many would try to reach the house of the deceased. However, for some people, that`s not possible immediately if, they are far away. Although, it might be rather unfortunate but its true. So, at that moment, we should waste no time in learning how to word condolence phrases. A nicely written (or spoken) condolence message can do wonders for the bereaving family.
So, in this article I would try to help you word (or write) a condolence message. I cannot emphasize its importance anymore.
You should try to think of the deceased person, his/her good deeds. Then, try to recall the day when, you first met. How his/her personality struck you immediately. Also, think of how the void created by him (after, he/she passed away), would be impossible to fill.
If you are not able to speak immediately to the deceased`s family then, try to send them a condolence letter. Although, its hard to compose yourself after hearing about such a terrible news, you have got to calm down. You need to remember that if you panic yourself then, how are you going to reassure the mourning family. I know, its easier said than done!! But try your best, nonetheless.
Are you still wondering, how to word a condolence message? I can understand the feeling which is gripping you right now, trust me! Just try to somehow relax & take a deep breath. Then, read on….
First of all, you should try to somehow speak to the mourning family. But only after, you have got yourself in a better state of mind. Try to think that where the “passing soul” has gone is free from all the worldly nuisance like, hunger, diseases, sufferings. Try to think of good deeds he/she had done in his/her entire life. All of these thoughts should help to calm you down. Then try to reassure the bereaved family. Tell them that you are always by their side. Tell them that the passing soul will find eternal peace.
In the end, try to remind their family, that they had done everything they could & that they were by the side of the one, who died, in his/her parting moments. Do remember, that every condolence message must end with words like, “May God give her eternal rest & may her soul rest in peace”, “All my sympathy is with you”.
Knowing how to word a condolence message is sure to ease the pain of a mourning family.
