So I have started....

[POWdER-man]

....doing something every man and woman should do at least once in their lifetime.....preferably more than once....

and no....I am not talking about sex......I think we get enough of those types of treads around here.....

I have started my Final Will and Testament (reluctantly)......I have been delaying this for awhile now and have recently decided to get it over with....It's not the most enjoyable thing to do, but it's something someone like myself REALLY needs to do incase anything were to happen to me, dun dun dun.....so I pushed my procastinating habits aside and started working on it.....

So as I am looking at this I start thinking of all my possessions, my assets, my family, and friends and most of all my life.......and really....starting your Will significantly puts your life in perspective......you start thinking what you have accomplished, what you have done, how far you have gone, etc......and then it hits you......your life is 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5 over (if you are that lucky)....and you think of all the things you sacrificed in your life, the things you haven't done yet, the things you don't have, the things you passed up in life, things you regret...and then.....how will people remember when you are gone......will they remember....I mean sure your family and friends will....and the odd other person here and there....but as the years go by....less and less will probably think of you...miss you....less and less will remember little things about you...

So as I ponder this I think about what type of legacy I would leave once I am gone and I realize I wouldn't leave much behind.....I suppose it's my own quiet and reserve personality to blame.....I don't do any charities....I don't volunteer....I don't give words of advice....I don't coach...or teach anyone anything.......I do make small donations here and there, I have a small presence in the community and business market.....but I guess I am having an Ebenezer Scrooge moment, and just feel I should do more....so forgive me if I sound like I should begin a telethon......

So I guess to make this hype related...hmmm.....how would you like to be remembered, or how would you think you would be remembered (if at all) if you were to leave the Hype (or real life) tomorrow.....

I suppose I would be mostly remembered in the other forums.....for my presence in the SM3 forum, and my picture thread......for the avatars I have made for people.....and hmmm....that's probably about it....

So how would people remember you (truthfully)....

If anything, this is going to be interesting.....

 

[Ghostvirus]

I have no clue how I will be remembered here. In the real world well...

 

[Badger]

Don't ever think of death...Ignorance is bliss.

Damnit now I'm thinking about it.

 

[Spade]

Honestly, I doubt anyone in real life or on the net would remember me if my brains were dashed tomorrow.

 

[Jack Rabbit]

I let the government take care of my will and whatnot.

if I get blowed up, Mom and Pops are gonna be rolling in cash.

 

[Kritish]

I thought about doing one of those once, I realize I don’t like anyone enough in real life to give them my cash. So if I die prematurely my life insurance will cover for my body to be put in the cryogenics program and whatever’s left will go to my niece’s college fund.

 

[Sensi]

I would be remembered as kind and compassionate with a forgiving heart or I would hope I would be. Powder you are a good and kind person . Many will know that.

I just wonder what will happen to my fanfic. It's a large body of work that I put a lot of effort into. It's fully illustrated as well. I have it on disc, but also in hard copy. Anyone cleaning out my basement can't miss it, I have it collected in 40 snap binders or so. What will happen to that? Will 9 years of lovely labor just get dumped in the trash? Or will someone in my family actually want it?

All material deteriorates over time. The important thing is that somebody else enjoyed it in the here and now.

True. I just feel like that homebody painter who does decent work and yet never shows it to many people. Writing, like art, is subjective. One man sees greatness, another junk. Makes ya wonder how many great artists out there never got seen.

lol...it's hard to do when you are making your will.....probably one of the reasons why I didn't make it sooner.....

lol...well unless you express your wishes in a Will that will more than likely won't happen.....

Well thanks Sensi, and yes you are and would be.....

WOW....that's a lot....

 

[kytrigger]

Yeah, I thought about it, but I don't really have many possesions in my life. I have life insurance but that is mainly it. I figure on teh chance that I get sent to Iraq, I will probably write a couple letters to freinds and family on teh off chance somethign happens, but that is really it until I get older and actaully have possesions.

I do think that whenit is time to have a final will and testament that it won't be too hard for meto do. I know many popel dislike doing it (and I understnad why), but the idea of death has never truly scared me. It's not that I want to die, but I accept it as a eventual occurrence and basically just say "**** it, it'll happen when it happens".

 

[unstoppable]

well I'll write one eventually but right now i'm 15 and don't have any possessions to give

 

[Kritish]

lol...well unless you express your wishes in a Will that will more than likely won't happen.....

Already on the waiting list for cryo.

 

[Green Goblin 1964]

I'm going to do something in life and many people will know me in the future for something I plan to achieve....what? You guys will find out in the future...

Oh, and on my Will it'll have my life savings....


$1.09

 

[Spade]

If it's goatse, I may not want to know.

 

[Abaddon]

I'll be too dead to worry about it.

Out of curiosity- how old were you when you signed up?

Oh, and powder-man haven't seen you over at the Spidey Forum since a while ago...How are you? and how did you like the movie....


also this post really makes you think....a+

I got in a few weeks ago.

 

[The Last Meatbag]

Unfortunately, even though I have 20k+ posts...I don't think I'd really be remembered on here, I'm not really buddy buddy with an abundant amount of posters, and I'm not one of the more popular posters on here (Erz, Holly, Wil)

But if I were to be remembered, I'd like to be thought of as witty, logical, and accepting.

*titanic theme*

Well that should clear it right up.

 

[Spade]

I'm more surprised there's a waiting list for that sort of thing than anything else.
