Planning for Death

Recently I posted this quote on Instagram, “Death is the certainty. Life is the unexpected gift.” (Jon Foreman)

It’s pretty wild, right? We get all this and the only stipulation is that one day, we will die. It is a sad fact, but a fact nonetheless. As humans we excel at avoidance behaviours... we all know this will end and yet so many don’t plan for it. No Will, no passwords, where are the bank accounts? No guide left behind for your bereft loved ones. But wait... you knew this was going to happen at some point.

It’s not fun to think about but, the irony is thinking about it won’t kill you, or bring about an untimely demise. Planning is a gift for those left behind and a reminder to you that you have this one wild and precious life.

Want to dip your toes in? Let’s chat. Zero pressure and oodles of compassion. We should all plan to die.
