What's Your Choice? Burial or Cremation?

How do you feel about the inevitable end?

Have you planned for the final good bye??

I think graveyards should be outlawed.

Cremation.
I think cemeteries and grave-visits have nothing to do with those who passed. They're all about comforting the living.

Cremation

But, my husband doesn't want that, so I'll be buried.

No biggy really, I'll be dead, so whoop de doo.
I'm firmly planted in denial

I don't actually care for myself since I'll be dead, but I think burial is a huge waste of space, often prime real estate.

Well if I had it my way,I would just never die,but since nobody has figured out how to make that happen I think that when my time comes,I really don't like the thought of being confined in a box under layers of earth,I'm a little claustrophobic. lol So I guess cremation would be the best.

me too lol

...

I think I'd prefer cremation... I think an unattended grave that's dirty, falling apart and blatantly uncared for is a sad sight.
JaneyPoos used to be it... then they changed what it was. Now what I am isn't it and what is it is strange and frightening to me...

Last year when I had surgery, I made my arrangements before I went in so my family wouldn't have to do it "in case".
I have a nice, cozy mausoleum space waiting for me, on the 4th row. I pay on it every month.
Yeah, I know.... redface

Hey, I've already seen my "future home". wink

Seriously, though- when I was told there was a chance I could bleed to death on the table, I couldn't imagine my parents having to go through that. So I got my affairs in order before I went in. So now I have my plot. shrug

I can see that as sensible but mighty grim... poor you sad

...it just seems weird being able to visit your own grave! I'd be tempted to put flowers down! lol
