What would you chose for yourself??

Question

Normal enbalming and Burial or cremation??
Which do you think is easier for your family??
Do you want a place for your family to have to come back and visit your remains??

Answer 1

Actually I'm going to be made into a diamond. I think that is alot more pleasant than either of the above choices. I just have to figure out if I can be made into 3 diamonds, as I have 3 kids. That way it alleviates the guilt of having to drag around my ashes (gross), or spread them (sad, nothing to hold onto), or sit around a depressing cemetary (not what I want my family to do, not the best memories, wasted flower money.. more merchants capitalizing on misfortune.. as I am not going to be hanging out there after I die)..As a diamond, not only do my kids have something of me that is beautiful, (wow! Look at mom she looks great..or wow! Look at great great great grandma she still looks great!) but they will also most likely wear the jewelry so I am "with" them all the time! I do tease my kids and tell them that the one that I am mad at when I die, gets the diamond that is made from my butt and my feet!! Lol..we're a sick family!

Answer 2

I definitely want to be cremated,and then have my ashes scattered from a cliff into the sea.I"ve always been happiest on or around the water whether fishing,swimming,diving,you name it!Whenever my family wanted to visit me all they would have to do is stand on the very same cliff where my ashes were scattered and either watch a sun-rise,sun-set or a wave just rolling and that"s where i would be.
