My eulogy is as follows:
What are you doing here? Go home. Be useful. Nothing to see here.

"she was love."

no, but that sounds like an interesting exercise. now to find a napkin.

Writing my dads made me realise I have some big boots to fill.

Again your picture is different!
No, it would sound like bragging to me. Let the community do that. I organized the memorial for my late Partner (Parvin). A lot of people attended and many made speeches. I spoke twice and even though public speaking is not my thing I was confident, empowered and even ad-libbed. She would have approved. That would be my ideal.

I had a friend who wanted a tombstone. He thought why not be able to use it while I am alive and actually had one made with his name and birth date. He used it as a coffee table (a very heavy one).

What if you ask 3 good friends to write one about you. I think its important for a eulogy to express how you were perceived by your community. Our self impressions can be incredibly biased

Come into the light

As you are now, I once was. As I am now, you will be.

I did so as part of a human relations exercise when I was in my early 30s and still unmarried. Now I'm 74 and it makes very strange reading. I've never shown it to anyone, either then or since.

Writing the songs I want people to dance for me will be enough. I need to hurry up and put them to happy music and record them... this year.

I've thought about writing my own obituary, but not my eulogy. My obituary needs to list my cause of death as "autoerotic asphyxiation," which may or may not be accurate. The rest would be fabrication and hyperbole.

I think that is beautiful to think about, really. I want the word "Atheist" on my headstone. Or, the symbol.

No, mostly because I'm overly invested in self absorption anyway. It would be an exercise in fantasy, but I would want to know what others would write.

Bah Humbug...life is for the living, and when you are gone, you won't care.

Mine is already written and i included thanking those individuals who I really loved for their patience with me and for all the enjoyment they had given to me, I also imparted short messages to my grandchildren just for their eyes.It wasn't morbid at all .I wrote it to tell everyone how important each was in my life.

"She...was not great."

I've actually thought about videoing one. Have no idea what would be in it, other than I'd try to make everyone laugh.

Have an ideas what my tombstone may say.

Paul's Pleasure business aim was for a friendier, more loving and kinder world.

Place my ashes in a sandcastle and let the tide carry it away.

I have not because I cannot assume who will be reading it, so I do not know what they would want to say. Funny how you think people will remember you for one thing, but it turns out they would want to share something completely different about you. I do not feel the exercise would be morbid, but rather more of a narcissistic thing

It would be difficult to do because I would get carried away with explanation and it would wind up being a book.

Have picked the music for the service. 1 cast your fate to the wind. 2 can't find my way home.3 somewhere over the rainbow.(Iz version)

I have never considered these things in this way before. I have some considerations to make.

Yep... that's all done. The wife got all shook up one day and sniffled untill she got what she wanted. It's really funny how some people want to just run and hide. Hmmmm...

It's an idea worthy of ponder. Writing a novel would be in mine. I am sure I will have a small book of poems which I've been having fun wit for a few years. Where do you come up with all these good ideas?
