No point in avoiding the inevitable. So let's get on with it, shall we?
Five thoughts you won’t have:
1. “I wish I’d had more plastic surgery.”2. “I’m so glad I watched every episode of Desperate Housewives: it has given me a deep sense of fulfillment and inner peace.”
3. “I really regret not buying those midnight blue Hardtail rolldown yoga pants.”
4. “I have absolutely no fear of what is about to happen: I have money in the bank and good insurance.”
5. “I’m so glad I chose this peach silk nightgown: it really works with my complexion….”
Five thoughts you will have:
1. “I wish I hadn’t been afraid to think about what is going to happen next.”2. “I wish I’d been a better person.”
3. “That was fast.”
4. “I want another try.”
5. “I think I left the oven on…”
Five thoughts you hope you’ll have:
1. “This is it: I have no fear, I am surrounded by love, and I accept this.”2. “I have the spiritual strength and understanding to face this moment.”
3. “I don’t want to come back…”
4. “Whatever state of being one remembers when he quits his present body, in his next life he will attain to that state without fail.” (Bhagavad-gita)
5. “Bitch, get your hands off that diamond necklace.”
haha...i dont know that i will be worrying about diamonds...or yoga pants...though the two could cause quite a ruckus if i was dressed in them when i died...
ReplyDeleteNow you're cookin' with gas :)
DeleteAnd please leave a note in your will that we want photos of that posted....
DeleteBraja, last Saturday, I literally died. My heart stopped for 8 seconds while in the hospital. It was so sudden that I didn't have time to worry about my appearance! :) When I came back, I was drenched with sweat and thought to myself, "Oh heck, I was on my way to hell..that's why I'm sweating so much!" But, seriously, I know without a doubt where I was but I just didn't think I'd be there as fast as I was.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back :)
DeleteYeah, glad you're back CCD...and true enough; last thing I was worried about was how I looked....:)
DeleteI had to snort at the diamond necklace though - could lead to a rocky road next time around. Hehehe!
ReplyDeleteCome back and get it back? Oh, we could be here forever...:)
DeleteI think I'd be more upset with what my final attire would be ...seriously, guys? This dress? Ugh it makes me look hippy. :)
ReplyDeleteYou mean peace love and brown rice hippy, or does my bum look big in this hippy? Cos there's a difference....
Delete:)
Hippy with the ass not the grass.
DeleteYou're such a poet....

But seriously, you know I wrote that because i see it (or did see it) on TV and in movies all the time, when someone dies the relatives are actually *concerned* with what they dress the dead body with, like it's meant to "reflect" what sort of a person they were....how freakin' bizarre. Burn it, bitches, and blow the ashes to the breeze!!!!
DeleteFabulous post and the comments are not so bad either :-) And the diamond necklace is a fake, I have hidden the real version.....
ReplyDeleteLeeann x
Ha!! Just to confuse the relatives :))) Good one, Leeann :)
DeleteAnd the comments are always interesting with Rene around....
0/2/3 5 out of 15. Is that a pass?
ReplyDeletepassed on or passed away or passed with flying colors....
DeleteLove it.....
ReplyDeleteI think I will wish I had done more for others....
other than that no regrets!
so do more :)
Deleteactually i wonder if that works.
Delete:)
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a diamond necklace! I guess I'd like to have on my nice underwear - like my mother used to tell me to wear just in case I got into an accident... No thongs or anything like that, though.
