......I don't want to sound morbid, because I'm really not that way, but living in an old folks community, I read a lot of obituaries. Five years ago I put a lot of thought into writing one for my Dear Helen and now I'm thinking I may have some fun writing my own. ......Of course I realize that almost everyone here is much younger than me and may not be interested in this but I'm asking you anyway ..............What would you like your obituary to say about you and the life you have lived?
GEORGE'S OBITUARRY .... By George
......Finally..........George got himself out of here. It took a long time and a lot of effort but he finally made it. Since I'm the one who happened to know George better than anyone else, I think it best that I be the one to write his obituary. I really did know every little thing about him. Also it's nice that George won't have to worry about what someone else might say about him. ...... I don't think there was anything much different or unusual about him. He just thought and acted as he was programed by the DNA he was born with and the situations he faced throughout his life. Having no control over any of it. ...... His DNA gave him the gift of curiosity and a small brain to think with, and the situations gave him something to be curious and think about. The one thing he was most curious about was happiness. He had a real hang-up about happiness. He searched for it everywhere. He read about it, wrote about it, talked about it. His little website was overloaded with his stories about happiness. Every thing he did and every word he spoke or wrote was somehow related to happiness and making himself happy. I think George stumbled upon the secret of happiness and used it very well to his advantage. ......The actual things George did throughout his life were all just for himself and his Happiness. ........................... And that's all I know about George...........
Love it. Who knows the person more honestly then the person themselves. Makes me think of movies where a person holds a funeral for themselves, ,lets people think he is dead laying there in the coffin, then sits up.
