Do you ever speculate what is written on the headstones of eminent personalities like more recently of Steve Jobs, who transformed the history of Apple Inc.? These thoughts always leave me perplexed and wondering what will my headstone look like, what will my children love to write on that? This is a very uncanny feeling, but the sooner we accept it the better. The only truth of our life is death…..so why not do something that with bronze grave markers incredible and amazing moments of our life are encrypted on them.

From heaven when Albert Eistein, Picasso, Mother Teresa, Abraham Lincoln or Martin Luther King would look down on their headstones, then probably a sense of pride will engulf them. From their heavenly home they would understand what they have done for the mankind. Their work is still appreciated and is composed with indelible tombstones.

What are these gravestones?

In the pensive mood, I ponder over the thought ‘what are headstones, are they story tellers of our past generation’. In a way yes, they are the story tellers, it is through the etched out grave markers that today we know the life form of millions of years ago.

Egyptians and the Mughal rulers of India have the concept of encrypting on tombstones. These days when you visit these nations, it will not be difficult to know about the world that was then. A detailed literature is provided and we can relive the bygone era with these engravings.

Earlier there were no aspects of grave markers, so the text was etched out or was in the form of paintings. Even those simple strategies which were used then have proved very beneficial for the historians and the archeologists to study the past life.

Headstones in the present era
The years have changed, man has become more sophisticated and techniques have improved. There are conscious effort to chronicle our culture either through history and digitalizing. Still the simple rule of encrypting on the headstones has not been altered.

The belief is rest of the things can fade or get misplaced or destroyed but engravings never ever die. So, improved upon grave markers that can last long are used for writing and for getting personalized message on granite.

The time has moved so in advance that even headstones are ordered online and you can get it customized too. There are so many options and designs, give your dear ones the place they deserved through the right type of grave markers and headstones.
