Why Opt for Cremation Services

It might be too scary to ask anything fatalistic because humans are wired that way; why ask about death when we are still living? However, it is a fact of life that we a born into this world and we leave in a time that we cannot fully control and dictate. It has been said that it is better to be cremated or have our dearly departed cremated when their time to leave earth arrives. But why? Here are practical reasons why:

1. Low maintenance. It has been said that a cremation entails very little processes compared to burying the dead underground. A coffin can cost quite high especially if a certain type of wood or metal is preferred over another. However, with cremation services, the rate is fixed, and it is just a matter of depositing the body in a facility that does cremation services, and depending on the size and weight of the dead body, approximately 4 to 5 hours are all it takes to transform the dead body into ashes.


2. An intimate remembrance wherever you go. Taking the time to grieve can be a difficult process especially if there are little mementos to keep the spirit of the dearly departed alive as vibrant as possible. With human ashes safely stored in an urn or a tiny jar, loved ones and friends left on earth have something to look at as they reminisce all the wonderful memories they have with the person who just passed away. Grieving is a process different from one person to another, and it is quite universal that healing is faster if we have something literal and physical to hold on to.

3. Less travel time to commemorate with the dearly departed. Especially for families and friends who are constrained to travel long distances just to visit the cemetery, cremation saves people the time, effort and resources to be physically present with their dearly departed. With ashes to keep inside their homes or wherever they maybe, one need not drive long distances just to be reunited with the ones they love. Cremation is a practical choice that one should definitely consider.
