the berks are doing another round of posts, each member answering the so-called proust questionnaire. i hope i can find the time to answer the whole lot myself, but let me start with this one: what is your greatest fear?

like many, i fear death. not as much as my own, but of the people i love, the people around me. whatever will i do without my husband? will the sun shine as bright without jan? and mia– i get nightmares just thinking about SIDS and other accidents that may befall such a vulnerable infant.

the logical side of me says death is as natural as life itself. it’s inevitable. it happens to everyone, it’s just the manner in which it happens that varies. if one’s lucky, you can prepare for it to a certain extent. compare life insurance quotes and get it all sorted out. a memorial plan and a will makes it easier for those left behind to deal with financial issues, too.

but what about the emotional loss? could you help others to cope with the grief of losing you? i suppose there’s only one thing you can do to make death easier to accept: live life meaningfully.
