=Why is it so hard to talk about The End?=
 * scary
 * upsetting
 * emotional
 * brings back memories
 * bad luck
 * means I'm giving up
 * means I'm giving up hope

"If you think talking about your end of life wishes is **scary, upsetting, emotional** consider what happens when your family/community doesn’t know what you want: fights about end of life decisions because they each have a different understanding of final wishes and/or each have their own agenda."

If, like me, you have **upsetting memories** of someone you love dying, consider that by thinking and planning for it now, it's an opportunity to make sure your Best Endings inspire good memories.

Talking, thinking, making plans for Best Endings **will not make the end come any faste**r. (there's even been a study that says so.

Whether or not I want to die, it’s an inevitable part of life.

Instead of the prospect of giving up or giving up **Hope**, I'm thinking about what I can **Hope For**. In my case:
 * minimizing suffering (physical, mental, spiritual),
 * leaving a legacy: what do I want to be remembered for? What can I leave behind?
 * celebrating accomplishments
 * making sure those I love and care for and appreciate know it!
