Ok so when you die and if you get a headstone...what do you want to be inscribed on it?

Question

maybe a poem, or just like 'loving mother and wife' etc, or a quote...etc etc.

Answer 1

Here lies the best husband, father and sexiest billionaire to ever walk this earth. After discovering the cure of 98 terminal children's diseases, he went on to cure hunger and end all war as we know it. He was a master at Halo 3, stalked by Kirsten Dunst, Nicole Kidman, Cameron Diaz, 74 different sororities and ran 4 triathlons per week. He was best known for his unjustifiable humility. The planet will miss him.

Answer 2

The humorous answer is..."Help...Let me out...I can't breathe down here!"

The more serious answer:
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.

While this poem was written a woman by the name of Mary Frye, it has always struck me as having a Native American style to its interpretation of death. Being part Crow, I can definitely relate to the idea of the body becoming a part of nature again.

Answer 3

On my headstone I would like inscribed--"She Lived, She Loved, She Will Live Again".

Answer 4

She has gone back to Mother Earth
Air Fire Water Earth
Spirit



(with a pentacle under the words)

Answer 5

A life that was worth living.
A life that was worth sharing.
Daughter, Sister, Friend to Many.
< My NAME>

and then two arms extended to heaven to receive the grace of God's mercy. (Just engraved into the head stone).

Answer 6

I know this sounds really cheesy, but I want the lyrics from a song from one of the Land Before Time movies...
Circle of life/Grandma's lulaby


(The circle of life
is simple, yet profound.)
A quite straight-forward line
that goes around and round and round...
It starts at the beginning,
(and it will never end...)
and that to me, must surely be life's secret,
my friend...
For the circle of life continues every day.
None of us can stop it from going on its' way.
With each new generation, one more circle is complete
Round and round and round it goes, Repeating, repeating,
Repeating, repeating...
It nurtures the young until they're fully grown,
and soon life's magic circle brings them
children of their own.
The family of nature, each husband and wife,
enhances the circle, the ever-widening Circle,
the wonderful Circle of Life...

Answer 8

"I have passed on but remember this: Until the higher math/abstract algebra community excepts Simon Brekman's Soft Algorhythm as real calculation rather than just pure conjecture, we will be mired in outdated cryptographic and mechanical theories and will never truly advance beyond primitive trigometric problem-solving!"
