Epitaph

When people are buried, an epitaph is often written. They say things like “Here lies Sue. She loved her
family with all her heart.” If the headstone below was yours, what inscription would you like to see on
it? How would you most like your life to be characterized? Again, this is neither a description nor a
prediction; it is a hope; an aspiration; a wish. It is between you and the person in the mirror. What
would you like your life to stand for? Think about it for a moment, and see if you can distill your
innermost values into a short epitaph and write it out on the illustration of the tombstone below.
