Glad to see you(r posts) again 😁 -- and I agree with you; quite frankly it is a privilege for most people not to have to think about death. It just means that they’ve had a very comfortable life.
I wrote something a while back called “Reasons to Keep Living” in which I tried to navigate the subject without resorting to the useless platitudes that most people fall into.
I’m glad that your mother planned everything out as best as she could, and as always I look forward to reading what you put out next 😄
This is lovely! I couldn’t agree more. Thinking about our own death helps to appreciate life and center what matters. My dad and his brother died in their 30s (cancer). I am grateful every day to be alive and healthy. It’s not guaranteed! I’m heading toward 40 and think getting older is lovely :)
