Memorial Stones and the grieving process

Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. ~Author Unknown

The loss of a loved one can be an extremely difficult time in ones life. The pain that we experience is both personal and unique to us. How one person grieves the loss of a loved one, can be very different in how another one grieves. There can be five stages of grief. A person may experience some of these stages or all of them at once. There is no specific order in which a person experiences these stages:

1. Denial

2. Anger

3. Bargaining

4. Depression

5. Acceptance
