If I Die Young....

So…this past weekend I was visiting my parents at a resort in southern Virginia and for some strange reason I was talking to my parents about what I wanted my funeral to be like if I died young. I said I didn’t want to be buried under ground, but have my ashes taken around the world and released and if someone insisted on having a headstone somewhere..I wanted it to say something funny…like ‘She died how she lived..on her back’ lol…well, that would be very inaccurate for me..but something funny like that. I don’t want everybody to be sad..but happy that I lived. So…after this slightly creepy conversation with my parents I heard the below song driving back to DC. I thought this song is exactly how I would want it to be. Lol The scariest thing about dying young for me, is missing out on all the things I want to do. It’s for that reason alone…I'm so passionate about my bucket list. A list of things I want to experience before I die….because I want to tell some really awesome stories in Heaven one day. But if I never complete my bucket list….’Gather up your tears, keep’em in your pocket, save them for a time when you’re really gonna need them.’ So…here’s to living a happy life of celebration.

Ummm, I am so not a fan of creepy blogs that make me wonder if you're having a premonition or something...in your next blog I am requesting you name all the names of your future children/grandchildren/great grandchildren and great great grandchildren that you will be alive to see!!
