    "Learn to take life less seriously" this is really controversial statement but at the same time very true. You could be very successful or live a healthy life and reduce the possibilities of early death. But you cant be 100% in control of yr future and one day you could just die from accidents or illnesses.
    Live life with a thankful heart and treasure the people ard you. Spend time with yr love ones and not over prioritise yr work. Stay safe and healthy whoever is reading this ❤

When my mum was released from hospital to the funeral home,after a post-mortem I couldn't wait to take her purple clothes over, and then be left on my own to do her makeup, plus purple streaks in her hair, because she still is such a vibrant character..My Mum Jean...RIP!!

I remember i had to work overtime alone in our office to meet the deadline, it was quiet and almost till midnight.. i had to play media, music or play some movies just to be not scared... but Sarah had a more intense experience, she was embalming alone around 2am, she did play music too just not to be scared... wow, she is so brave. I was even a little scared working in the office, how much more if i work as an embalmer. Sarah, i really salute you for doing such a noble job. You're great!

    Thank you Sarah for sharing the last part of the client's journey. It must take lots of courage and empathy to do this job. Preparing the body for the last rite and also presenting it as close to the natural look, takes lots of imagination. Your cleaning of the finger's under nail showed that you really want to dress up the client to the best possible way. As you mentioned death comes to anyone be it young or old, fat or thin, good looking or not, the spectrum of the human body...whatever faith you practiced, it must be your anchor and as you go about preparing the body, it is almost like a zen moment where you are giving the client the most respect in preserving their possible last look. be IN the light, be OF the light and BE THE LIGHT

    The dead knows and thankful when they go....I think of my late husband few years ago he died in a tragic accident and my mom just recently 3 months ago..... My brother at the age 61 he works in a funeral parlour and he died peaceful even he has cancer in the lungs. He died doesn’t suffered much less the 2 weeks...

    Hello Miss Sarah, I salute you taking this job which usually done by elderly ppl in the past, let alone a yong & pretty girl. What Sarah is doing is right particularly the crop is a woman. It the family of the dead person some respect. Wouldn’t you agree, vice versa if the the man should be by a male embalmer to respect both Sarah & the dead person’s family.
