Upon Your Death
I hope that when you die, your family and friends are not mocked and scolded for mourning.
I hope that when you die, the people at your graveside are not relentlessly reminded of your sins (there will be many). I hope the list of your mistakes and shortcomings gets buried right alongside you.
I hope that when you die, no one responds to your obituary by writing a letter to the editor outlining all the beliefs you held that they disagreed with.
I hope that when you die, no one says, “Good riddance.”
