If you were to die today what would you like people to say about you? If someone had asked me that question 20 years ago or 50 years ago, I know my answer would be different because I really couldn't imagine me dying. But now I am 77.
Here is my answer today: I would want people to say I was a visionary who never let go of the idea that she could help create peace on this planet. I'd want them to say I was a good mom even though I didn't have a very good mom. I'd want them to say I was cute and wise and loving and funny. I know they would say I was fussy and picky about almost everything and I hope they'd know it was because I had a sensitive body and wasn't just a pest. (Although I'm sure I am that too.)
Well, I could go on but I'd rather start reading your journals.
