“Why did you buy a plot so young?”
“Doesn’t it freak you out knowing where you’re going to be buried??”
“Will you send me a quote I can use in a upcoming article? I recently bought a plot too, but it upset me too much to know exactly where I’ll be so I had my yard worker pick it out for me!”
*******
These were questions that an older journalist friend asked me after learning that I had bought lots of stuff last year at the age of 41.
As hard as I tried to fulfill her wish of condensing all my reasons into a tidy paragraph though, I just couldn’t do it… Within seconds I had over 5 reasons, and then a few more later I had over 10! So instead I shot her the below set of bullet points which I’m turning into a blog post here in case it inspires some of you to take action too.
When you’re done reading this, be sure to check out her article on it! –> Why did I have my yard work helper pick out my grave? Although our opinions are different, we both agreed that the mission was accomplished.
Here are all the reasons I bought a lot at such a young age… Let’s make it a trend!! 😉
Emotional reasons
- I love cemeteries.
- I want to be buried in one. So people can always stop by and say hello whenever they like.
