By some... But As i am comming to realize, i am not "universaly" important.... And i hope that even those who miss me would realize that living well is all i ever would want from and for them. No tears for me, just rememberances of good times and and lessons learned :-)

Nope, nor do I care. It's not like I still have feelings when I'm dead.

Everyone I know that loves me is scattered. I know Andy would be very grieved. My kids might be grieved. Julian maybe. I have a friend or several who might be upset. My priest keeps telling me to file a plan with the church and they will make sure I have a send off. I know for sure my kids can't afford one.

Only by my birds. They'll probably die of starvation/thirst by the time someone came into the house to check on me.

:Do You Think You Would Be Terribly Missed If You Died?
Of course not. Maybe a few days of mourning by my children and friends, but then they have to get back to the business of living.
Mark Twain made that observation himself. Life is for the living. It is not about living for benefit of the dead.
Don't take yourself too seriously. No one else does, except possibly you.
Be happy to feed the worms. I will. Worms are the living and we are just food to them. That's the way it works and all our our ego-driven bullshit doesn't matter to the worms. And after about 3 days or so, it doesn't matter to the living humans, either.
