So I hate funerals... What is America's obsession with looking at dead bodies? No other culture in the world possesses the desire to stare at their dead loved ones body after it has been violated and desecrated with countless chemicals in a way that it will never rot and never return to the earth the way it was meant to be. It's like saying screw you mother nature! I'm too fucking good to be a part of your creation God! I'm repulsed by this idea.
When I die, first I want to be cremated... No embalming, no viewing, donate my organs to someone who needs them if possible first please, but do not fill my empty shell with pollutants and carcinogens. Then I want everyone I know to have a party, not a funeral or memorial service, but a party to celebrate my life! My sparkle! My Joy! I by no means am saying that I expect no one to be saddened or cry at my loss, but do not focus on the downside! Revel in the good I have done, the cherished memories of me. Celebrate life in general, it is too short to spend it crying and moaning about what we have lost. I want there to be music and dancing in my honor. Talking, laughing, joviality. I want tears of joy for the happy life I did live. I know that when I die, I will have no regrets because I plan to live everyday to the fullest. I will launch myself at every opportunity and soar above all dark clouds that try to stand in my way. Do not mourn my death, instead celebrate my life, all life. There will be lots of food, especially my favorites... Tiramasu, shrimp cocktails, pickles, mushrooms, strawberries, chocolate, and oh so much more. Dontations will be accepted in honor of various conservation organizations to continue the work that I did in life, preserving life...
Then, I want my close friends and loved ones to pick a beautiful, unspoiled place in the world to spread my ashes. It would only be fitting that they wear fairy wings in my honor as they help me go back to the earth from which I came and which I loved and yearned to be more a part of everyday of my life.
As I live I celebrate all that is around me and in me, and I feel it should be the same when I die.
