Plenty can happen in 82 days.
I just sent my wife this email:
That 38 year old client of mine (father of 3) called me on November 20, 2009 which was the day he received his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. They gave him 6 months to live at that time. He signed his Will at my office on December 8th. He died yesterday.
Please don’t ever ask me again why I choose to spend exorbitant sums on holidays. Love me.
Lac Beauvert (pictured above) is in Jasper National Park, Alberta. When I check out I think that's where I would like to have my ashes scattered.

Yes, yes we are only here for a very very short time. I don't wish to live my life as if an invisible god is watching my every move. My KNOWING I will nly be here for a short time makes me more aware of how life is so precious.
I am grateful for this post. We all need a reminder from time to time.
Every life is precious no matter how long or short. The idea that someone can be pursuaded to end their life on a false promise is anathema to me.
Just a thought -
Why do you care where your ashes are scattered when you're gone, TAM?
Good question wanderer. To be frank, I really don't care what happens to my ashes. I just thought it would be a nice way for my family to remember me after I'm gone. I never feel more alive than when I'm in Jasper.
