The other day i happened to overhear a conversation between two people about a third person who had recently died. I knew all three of the people concerned and for a while i couldn’t help but wonder if my ears were playing tricks on me.
I couldn’t believe what i was hearing. Because the two people who were talking were all praise for the person they were discussing.
I knew that neither of the two had particularly liked the person in question. In fact, they’d positively disliked him, and, as far as they were concerned, far from being the late lamented the departed one should have been the late unlamented, the only lamentable aspect of his departure being that it was so late in coming.
Despite that the two seemed to be competing with each other in seeing who could outdo whom in saying nice things about the guy, whom they made sound like a cross between an Albert Einstein for intelligence and a male Mother Teresa for compassion and charitableness towards his fellow human beings.
Far from being a stray case, such eulogising of the dead is the rule rather than the exception which proves it.
In life a fellow could have been an out-and-out scoundrel, a con artist and swindler who cheated everyone he could, and who not only energetically picked his nose in public but subjected to keen scrutiny what his finger had managed to find therein.
But the moment he kicked the bucket, he’d be invested with an instant halo and declared to be a saintly soul by the very people who’d been his former detractors.
Why is it that we are enjoined not just not to speak ill of the dead but to speak as well of them as it is possible to do.
