Roulette's post about her gram, and my own gram dying, it got me thinking of how I want my funeral. I have always had very specific thoughts on how I want things done, and my boyfriend doesn't agree. He thinks it's selfish, he says funeral's are for the family to say goodbye and grieve, not for the dead person.
I do not want a funeral at all. I do not want put in a casket or burried I want creamated and my ashes dumped outside. I coudl care less where, if its in the ocean or behind an alley, as long as they are dumped outside. I am willing to have a memorial service outside somewhere, with a picture of me up, but no casket. I do not want put in a casket at all. I HATE funeral's, and i think they are silly. To cry over someone's dead body. I dont get it. I want my life remembered, I do not want peopel to cry over my dead body. I think the whole idea is freaky. I never understood the whole thing. My boyfriend says that people need to do that to get closure and say goodbye, and while i agree with that...it's just a dead body. I'd much rather someone just go sit otuside under a tree smewhere and talk to the wind, because a person's spirit is there, not in the dead body. People just need somethign physical to touch and mourn.
Anyway, I have told him my plans, since I have a very specific idea of what I want. No casket, no funeral. Just a memorial. Dump the ashes. Anywhere. Dont matter to me. If you want to grieve and mourn, go sit outside and do it, but no need to talk to a casket or headstone. I will not be there.
so...its it odd that I am 26 years old and know exactly what I want? Is it wrong I ant things the way I do? Is it selfish? And d you know how you want thigns? Have you ever thought about it?
