“And so we live with no obligation, no duty, no purpose where our dead are concerned. Every day we turn away from our dead. They’re not really dead at all, anymore. They’re ‘the’ dead instead. Think of every funeral or memorial service you have been to: how many times were the dead spoken to, instead of being spoken about? Not often, probably. How many times were the dead beckoned and courted and invited into the event, and how many times did you carry yourself as if the dead were there? It isn’t likely that you did. How many times was the ceremony conducted as if all of you figured enormously in how it was and was to be for the dead? Alas, certainly not often enough for them or for us.”
