Saying the Right Thing
Sometimes we avoid saying anything because we are afraid we will say the wrong thing. Here are some ideas that will most always be 'right':- You are in my thoughts and prayers.
- I love you.
- My heart hurts for you.
- I can't imagine how you must be feeling.
- This must be so hard for you.
- I would like to help out. Would it be OK for me to bring a meal over?

And some that can be downright offensive:- God knows best.
- You can have another child.
- You know he(or she) is in a better place.

It is always appropriate to send a thoughtful message along with a gift of flowers to remember a grieving friend or a deceased loved one on special occasions.Here are some that might require special timing: - This too shall pass.

- You will get over this.

Thoughtful Sympathy Quotes
"There are fine things which you mean to do some day, under what you think will be more favorable circumstances. But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend, to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate. Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile. The present is yours to do with as you will." Grenville Kleiser "Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It is the product of Faith, Strength, Energy, Will, Sympathy, Justice, Imagination, and the triumph of principle. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism." Dorothy Thompson (1894 - 1961)
