I’ve often thought about my death in terms of disposition, but have hesitated to get the insurance. “Once burned, twice shy.” So, by putting everything “out there” for feedback, and knowing two things for sure: 1) I have a Will and 2) I have a living trust, I left it up to the Lord to sort out while I slept.
This morning, it was clear: I will put in a clause for the Utah genetic society (or whatever it is) to take what they need, and donate the restame to the CDC so they can have fun searching for a cause for CFIDS.
It could be because I’m a “Downwinder,” for all I know.
I feel much better about it all this morning.
You were just taken by surprise. Now you've had a chance to collect opinions, reflect on the common fate of all humanity, and consider a bad joke or three.
Watch your US Mail for your fruit basket, too.
I had to look up “Downwinder.” (Having to look up stuff for this thread is not new for me lol!)
What I find peculiar about the majority of beneficiaries is that they expect to passively receive without putting forth effort. Case in point: we allowed an indigent family to live in the house we couldn’t sell on the condition that they take care of it (translation: keep it clean.) That didn’t go well, and apparently, that outcome hasn’t been uncommon among our friends and acquaintances. (No good deed goes unpunished.) It makes one consider the implications of one’s actions *very* carefully.
