Assignment #51

Describe What To Do With Your Body When You Die

A couple days ago i was listening to an episode of This American Life. It had to do with people's last words upon dying. In one of the segments, Sarah Vowell told a story about a husband a wife that died a day apart from each other. The husband, who died on the second day, decided that he wanted their bodies cremated together. If this highly unlikely case happens to me, i would like the same to happen. Sounds nice, don't it?

But i guess most likely i'll die on a day separate from those close. So i'd like to be cremated and thrown into the wind. A nice kind of lightness.
