This Week’s Reader Poll Results: Thank you to everyone who responded to our May 7th poll about what you’d like to have written on your tombstone. Perhaps not surprisingly, a great many of you said you hadn’t given the topic any thought. A large number of you wrote that you plan to be cremated (or composted), so there’s no tombstone for you to consider. Another popular response was just the basics: name, date of birth, and date of death. But several of you did share what phrase or quote you hoped would be on your tombstone, including the admonition, “Be Kind,” along with phrases a bit more humorous, including “Never a dull moment,” “She did her best,” and “The best is yet to come.” If you’re still thinking about what you want, and you have a sense of humor, you may want to consider the tombstone quotes revealed in this post on Bored Panda. And for more serious and contemplative inspiration for your tombstone, click here. Wishing you well, wherever your thoughts and words take you.
