Eulogy

Back in July of 2003 I had to prepare my Aunt's eulogy and I was given only one night to come up with it. But I didnt have any trouble in writing it, only because my aunt was a wonderful person all her life and there were so many brilliant things to say about her. I had a collection of precious memories of her and I remebered each and every good deed of her's towards us. She treated me and my sis like we were her own kids and whatever she bought for her daughter was also bought for us, there was no difference in treatment - such a big heart she had. As a young kid back then it all registered in my memory but never in my dreams did I imagine I would some day be chosen to write and read her eulogy! How horrible a job it would have been if she was a mean aunt to me, becuase I'm a damn honest person too! This made me realise how blessed she was to be a kind and generous soul and how blessed I am to have known her and to have been chosen to present her eulogy with genuine thoughts about her.

You are creating your own eulogy right now...the present you are living in will be beautiful or not-so-beautiful memories for someone who will be reading your eulogy some day. Ultimately what matters is what you have been to your loved-ones throughout your life. It will be one of your loved-ones who will read it so make sure they have true fond memories of you to read out without a doubt. If you were to die today, what would your eulogy read?

Here lies the confused, imaginative, stubborn, empathic, peace-loving and an easy going person who lost her markings and strayed on to the beaten path, for the first and for the final time.

Hi Keshi & the rest
I did realize the mistake I made to my comments in my April 28th post. For my May 2nd post, I intentionally disabled comments, cos I did'nt wanna sound like Im inviting sympathies for my loss. What I posted was just a dumping of my feelings and I did not feel like reading anybody. Maybe it was just my state of mind. I will enable my comments in forthcoming posts. Sorry and thanks a lot for your concern.

Dear Fake Stud,

The secrets that I do not know
I cannot understand them
Unwanted series printed over
Prose's are your defence

The battle bracelets do not fit
My unfavorite gladiator
A fanatic hero piously
HAS TO BE A FAKER

You are a dumb creator
A master in your mortal cave
I am a savage violator
A valet innocent and vain

My dear sweet Keshi,

Didn't realize writing eulogy would be this easy :)

Always yours
Stud
