Prepare For Death

Posted on March 15, 2024

Not a generally fun topic. However, it is one we all will encounter in our lives. It will be either the death of other people or our own.

Preparing for it 20 years ahead may take the sting out of the discussion. It may also allow you some time to get things in order properly.

It’s not an hysterically fun topic but it can be approached light-heartedly. It does need to be done to improve the lives of your heirs and allow you to rest your mind.

Start today. Progress towards completing your will, any trusts, funeral arrangements and Power of Attorney, and getting the rest of your documents in order.

Yes it might mean postponing a few favourite tv shows now and then but having this completed makes you the super star of your family. Dead and still ahead one day. Sort it now!

Death Is Upon Us

Posted on February 7, 2023

We are all going to die one day. This is an easier concept to accept when it is not looming on the horizon or at our front door.

So start getting comfortable with this very natural event or stage in life. All plants go through it. So do all animals, insects, fish, etc.

Make arrangements for this eventuality. Write it down. Get into all the detail.

I remember being in Toronto with my grandparents one time. They would only have been about 60. We were driving along in their car. As we passed a massive cemetary, my Grampa hollered, while pointing at a specific area, “That’s where I’ll be buried. Right there.”

They had made their funeral arrangements, bought the plot, paid for the casket, etc. They were responsible adults. They didn’t wait for their death to thrust havoc and decisions on their children.

Take charge of your affairs. Prepare for a good death. Then go and live it up until that time comes.
