Instead of just muddling through, lost in grief and unable to cope, a funeral eulogy can help a person who has had a loss; and this by just forcing them to gather themselves together and focus on a single task.
The task is the writing of a speech.
The task is remembering the good times and thinking about how that person has touched your life.
It is a hard task, but necessary.
Articulating these thoughts into words and phrases and intelligible sentences is the next step.
Write these thoughts down on paper, and you are halfway to doing a funeral eulogy.
Delivering the eulogy in a ceremony for the deceased is part of the process of coping.
By exploring your feelings and articulating them, and then sharing to a group of sympathetic listeners, you have helped yourself.
Not only that, you are participating in a process of helping the others too.
They are sharing in the same grief.
They need to go through the same process as you.
There are tips on how to make a funeral eulogy.
The easiest way is to copy a famous speech and read it word for word.
There are also templates where you can just fill in the blanks.
And yet some people find it easier to make their own funeral eulogy.
This is because it is their very own feelings that will be shared, and not that of others.
It is also easy to do this.
All one needs to do is remember, reminisce, give tribute, honor and respect, and above all be sincere.
