What chapter are you writing today?

Every day a new opportunity to write in your life book.

About your story.

To open a new chapter.

To add those special events that people will talk about when you are dead.

At your funeral.

What chapter are you writing today?

I’ve been in a few funerals and the visits that are after those funerals – which for Albanians are normally at least 5 days and up to a few weeks.

What I thought is pretty sad was not death itself, because that’s natural and after all part of life, but that people had no stories to share about the dead person.

They were pretty mediocre people in most cases.

Just nothing to share.

No content in their lives.

Nothing worth talking about.

People who – you might say – never really lived, and were dead before they died.

So, I’m asking myself and I’m asking you: What chapter are you writing today, that people will talk about at your funeral?
