Last words
Since we will all pass eventually, I'm curious how many have thought about what they want their last words to be. Will you be funny and try to lighten the mood or profound and share some truth that might benefit others?
What would you like to say?

Hmm...I had actually never thought about it before. I guess I would want to say "I love you" to the people who have touched my life.

I agree with Angie. I would want my last words to be how much I loved and appreciated my family and a word about staying close to the Lord so that we could all be together in Heaven some day. I would also say something about looking forward to seeing Jesus, my Savior.

Of course you know I'm just kidding. I don't know what I would say or want to say. Guess I'll have to give this some thought....

I know we all must face this, but I still have too much living to do to even begin to think about his topic. My hope is to be a light in this world as long as possible.

We were actually talking about this the other day. So many people's last words seem to be "Oh s***" or "Hey guys, watch this!" and I don't think that's how they want to be remembered. So I don't want my last words to be how I be remembered, I want to say all the I love yous and all the things that I find meaningful I can in life that way I can die knowing I said it enough. Also, if I die of old age and I know the time is nearing I think I'll write all the things I want passed on in a letter and put it in a safety deposit box to be opened upon my death. That way I can have no regrets and I can know that those I love will not go through life wondering what I would have wanted to say.
Then I can have last words like Winston Churchill's: "I'm bored with it all."

I really don't think I would want anyone there. I want my family (& friends if I ever make any) to remember how I was not as I die. I think I would want to write letters to my hubby, children, mom & siblings. I may start working on these soon.
