[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom died 4 years ago, and each year I have visited her grave on her birthday, Mother's Day and Christmas. I have never felt a "connection" to her grave, and I feel silly when I start to talk to her. I have considered discontinuing the visits, as I fully realize she isn't there. Yet, I feel guilty about it, as if I would be abandoing her. How have those who have lost a loved one dealt with grave visits?[/quote] No. Grave sites (to me) are depressing. I'd rather remember the songs, the pictures, the memories. This is also why I detest funerals. My last impression of them is in the coffin (if it's open - which I HATE) or just of the depressing get together. I avoid them. I realize other people feel comforted by these things. I'm just not one of them.[/quote]
