My shop has been at a heavy loss since the day my nephew's wife died.
I know I'll recover the losses sooner or later, but it will take time. Many of customers have been buying groceries from the other shop. I hope they will be back to mine the day I resume my business.
Some rituals are being performed. I've to participate in them. And for the same reason I have now been irregular and less active here.

@Shivram59 Oh. That is a shame. Of course, nothing is as big of a shame as the loss of a life, but still, that must be hard to deal with.

@AmbiePam Thank you. Of course, it's a shame, but we can't avoid them. My parents say good and bad times are inevitable part of life. and we all have to go through them. They ask me to face the problems bravely. This,too, will pass.

Thank you. I believe in Him, but so far I have incurred a heavy loss. The rituals will continue for five or six days more. Only after the completion of all the rituals I can resume my business. I'm confident I'll be able to bring my regular customers back, but it will take time.

Thank you. My mother and my father tell me such difficult times are a part of life. We have to go through them.
I know I'll bring my customers back, but it is not going to be easy. It will take months.

I am sorry about your nephew's wife.
God bless you guys.
Of course they will come back to you, and better also have a good marketing strategy so they come stick with you, and tell others about your good promotion and services.

Thank you. The rituals will take ten days to complete. A little time back I was back from my nephew's house.
I hope I will attract my customers again, but it is not that easy. Still I'm confident.

@Shivram59 In Bali, Balinese Hindu cremation ceremonies often take a significant amount of time to organize. Priests determine the most auspicious dates, and while families wait, they are deeply involved in continuous preparations. Because of these traditions, the deceased's body is sometimes kept for days or weeks. For many, including me, this is so exhausting.

Thank you. Though it will take some time, but finally I'll attract my regular customers back.
Sometimes such incidents happen and you have to face some problems.

Thank you, my friend. It all happened suddenly and unexpectedly.
Thank you for your well wishes.
Three days more and the rituals will be over.
