Don’t Let Your Phone Choose Your First Thought
The first few minutes of your morning can quietly set the direction of your attention. Try this small, slightly rebellious habit before the notifications start making decisions for you.
The Tiny Word That Makes Blake’s “The Sick Rose” So Terrifying
William Blake’s eight-line poem turns a rose, a worm, and one “dark secret love” into a complete horror story. Read it once for the plot; read it again for the grammar doing the damage.

Your Attention Is Not a Security Deposit
William James had a deceptively radical idea: experience is built from whatever we permit into the room. His 1890 observation explains why a five-minute glance at a notification can somehow eat an afternoon.

The Giant Van Gogh Screensaver Has to Go
The “immersive art experience” has turned masterpieces into a theme-park ride with better lighting. I am begging museums to let paintings be paintings again.

Plan for the Day. Why it makes sense to make choices about your future funeral now. Here’s the truth: selecting a final resting place in advance makes a difficult time become solely about celebrating life and honoring who you are. The alternative is often confusion, disagreement and guesswork. So, it’s smart to make these choices now. That way they’re not made on your behalf, at an emotional moment. The benefits to your family will be real and appreciated, ranging from spiritual choices to financial assistance. From selecting an ideal permanent memorial, to designing the service, to paying in advance, you can make the day exactly as you imagine it. And your loved ones will know they’re fulfilling your wishes. Which is exactly how they should feel. Keep reading to learn more. Family matters. Your family is everything. So the last thing you’d want is to put them in a difficult position. A time of loss is a time of confusion, but your final arrangements don’t have to add to the uncertainty. Pre-planning your funeral services can save your loved ones from having to make decisions while they’re grieving. And they won’t have to guess what you’d want. Making pre-arrangements is the responsible thing to do. Instead of getting bogged down in details, your family will be able to focus on celebrating your life. Personal service. Funeral and burial services are an important part of the grieving process. For a lot of people, they provide a sense of closure. So the right kind of ceremony is essential. But it’s difficult to make the service as meaningful as it should be, in such a short amount of time. By making those plans now, including choosing songs and selecting readings, you’ll have the kind of service you want, for everyone you love. In addition, you can design a beautiful permanent memorial. That way, your family will have a dedicated place to reflect and remember. Financial relief. Funeral services are often an unexpected expense. But they don’t have to be. You can choose to fund your pre-arranged plans now, and the costs will be locked in for the future, even if prices for various services and products increase. You don’t have to pre-pay if you pre-plan, but it is the best way to take the financial burden off your family. So it’s definitely a smart option to consider. Also, please know that your payments and plans can be adjusted later, should your wishes change over time. So there’s nothing to regret by going through the process now. Your decisions don’t have to be final. Start Planning Now To start the pre-planning process, you can fill out our pre-planning form.

Funeral Etiquette
Accepted customs of dress and behavior in a funeral have changed over time, but courtesy never goes out of style. Here's what we'd like you to know about funeral etiquette. Funeral Etiquette | Kernodle Funeral Home - Wynne, AR Skip to content Funeral Etiquette Back to Resources Posted in: Funeral Questions Funeral Etiquette Let us guide you through the ins and outs of your funeral experience. Attending a service at Kernodle Funeral Home, Inc. DO: Watch over children to ensure their safety. Follow our cemetery guidelines. Respect cemetery visiting hours. Follow the marked roadways. Be respectful by keeping quiet around visitors who wish to reflect. DONT’S: Stay longer than you want to. It’s all about what you’re comfortable doing, don’t feel that you need to linger if you’ve celebrated your loved one in a way that feels right to you. Be afraid to laugh and share happy memories and stories. Laughter and telling happy stories can be the best medicine on the road to healing. Feel that you need to look at the deceased. If this is something you’re not comfortable doing, there is no need to do so. A service is about your comfort level and your desire to celebrate the person in a way most meaningful to you. Let your children be too loud and disturb others. As always, respect others and practice awareness. Leave your cell phone ringer on. No one needs that additional noise when they’re trying to reflect. Be afraid to make a mistake or do something wrong. You are doing something right just by coming and caring.
