When I die...

I know some people will read this and think I'm really morbid. I'm not. I was just thinking about funerals and I decided I really don't want one. I wanted this to be written somewhere so that my wishes would be followed through. I'm not planning on dying soon but you never know when it is going to happen.

I know that funerals are like a memorial for a person and their life and a time for people to maybe get closure... but I'm not sure if I see it that way.
I don't want my parents, husband, or whoever to spend thousands of dollars on flowers, a funeral home, an urn, or a grave plot. I just don't see the point.
I don't want a place full of people crying over me, I'll be in a better place! Mourning is normal I'm not saying I don't mourn over death it is hard to say goodbye to someone you weren't ready to leave. I just don't want a formal ceremony.

This is what I want.
I want to be cremated and I want my ashes spread somewhere... I don't really even care where. It makes no difference. Maybe I will decide on a location someday.

Anyways I am posting this so that this will come true. I think it is only fair that I get what I want when I die =)
