Download or read book Because You Care written by Elmer Outlaw and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people spend more time planning their vacation than planning what will happen when they die. As sure as we were born, we will die. We have a lifetime to prepare for our death, but most never get around to it. The reasoning is simple, dying is a 'taboo' subject, and we either don't want to deal with it or never get around to it. We make excuses. Excuses fool no one except the person who made them. If you don't make preparations for your death, you will leave it to the loved ones you left behind. They will be in a period of pain, grief and confusion and will have to make decisions about your funeral, your estate and their future. This is the worst time to be making decisions. You can choose to make those decisions now and make their life a little easier. No more excuses. I have included some ideas on a bucket list. Many people have a bucket list of things to do before they die. My suggestions include things that will make your passing easier for those left behind. Most people have not thought about the things that will make it easier for their loved ones when the time comes. I assume you are 'most' people because you are reading this. I will try to guide you through the steps in being prepared to depart life and making it easier for those left behind. This is intended to be a short book and serve as a guideline for planning for your (or your loved one's) death. I have tried to lighten up the subject by adding a few stories (some with a bit of humor) throughout this book. This book does not cover and discuss all aspects of the subject. Customs vary greatly from section to section of the country. Laws are different in each state. Religious preferences are different. This is just a starting point but I will help you through each phase with the check sheet provided.

Action-based: Expected Date of Departure gives you permission to think about the inevitable death of loved ones, talk about it, and to plan for grief before it happens. Preparing for loss does not bring on bad luck nor does it cause fear; instead, it can make our world a more delightful place to live in.

Would you be more attentive, more thoughtful of the responses you give? Likely, yes. There will be more loving and caring if we relate to our loved ones with the end in mind. And if we happen to lose them, we will live on with the satisfaction that there were no unfinished businesses in our relationships.ReviewsThank you for being vulnerable and opening your heart in this way.

Book Synopsis Preparation for Death by : Brother Hermenegild
Download or read book Preparation for Death written by Brother Hermenegild and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-19 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is set out for two purposes. The first is to help us assist others prepare for death. The second is to help us prepare for death, because "no man knows the day nor the hour." Pope Saint Pius X advises all to make the following act of resignation: "O Lord, my God, from this moment with a tranquil and submissive heart, I accept from Thy hand the type of death that it shall please Thee to send me, with all its anguish, sufferings, and sorrows." Preparing for death and helping others to prepare for death and especially when they are dying to make it home to Heaven is indeed a very important and good work. The first preparation we need to make is to get on the fast track to heaven through meditation, prayer, spiritual reading, study of the Faith, penance and mortification. Many spiritual works are available to aid us in this most important task, for to fail to arrive in Heaven means we have condemned ourselves to hell. Our goal must be to depart this life and arrive immediately in Heaven. Such preparation requires that we purge ourselves of all worldliness whatsoever. Purgatory is a completion of such purgation for those, who are not quite yet ready for heaven. Our first question we must ask ourselves is this: "Am I ready here and now to be judged by Almighty God?" We need to prepare ourselves to be judged here and now. We are not promised next year, next month, next week or even the next moment. You may not finish reading this sentence, before THE SENTENCE is pronounced. Stop and make a perfect act of contrition with a resolution to go and sin no more with the help of God's grace. In order to better enable us to help others in their last agony, let us prepare ourselves and make those preparations for death we should be making here and now. And it matter not whether we are twenty, fifty, eighty or a hundred, we must have our affairs in order, so that when we arrive at our last agony we can focus completely on the one thing important, eternity and arrive home in heaven safely and quickly. Until then, let us resolve to learn from this instruction and from our daily spiritual reading what we ought to be doing. The Ritual gives instructions to priests on how to prepare someone to die well. "The priest shall then ascertain to what special temptations the sick man is subject and what erroneous opinions he holds, and shall prudently apply such suitable remedies as are necessary." In order to die well, let us take a day and follow the advice of Saint Alphonsus given below and devote it to preparing for death. What temptations am I most prone to? What do I need to do here and now to combat these temptations and overcome them. It is far better to overcome our evil inclinations now than to wait until we are weak and dying! "God showed to St. Teresa the place in hell to which she would have fallen if she had continued certain conversations and affections which were not sinful, but dangerous." 3 Let us consider this well. The road to hell is an easy one to get on to and to fall little by little from the life of virtue and grace. Had Teresa of Lisieux not given up these conversations and affections, we would not know of her. She would have slowly slid into venial sin, then a habit of venial sin and finally into mortal sin and been lost. What affections am I refusing to give up, that I ought to? This book contains the prayers of Saints Gertrude and Mechtilde for a happy death as well as Saint John Eudes ten day exercise of preparation for death. Saint Joseph Cafasso also has some prayers and Saint Alphonsus provides us with a good instruction. The Act of Resignation to the death God sends us is also provided together with the prayer that Saint Pius X gave a plenary indulgence to. The prayers from the Roman Ritual with their instructions are also provided to help in preparing for death. And finally the Office for the Dead comes after the prayers.
Book Synopsis Estimated Time of Departure by : William Donaldson
Download or read book Estimated Time of Departure written by William Donaldson and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death is inevitable, and yet the vast majority of the developed world seems to want to ignore this fact and avoid the sad inevitability. However, death is an inevitability, and trying to avoid talking about it is a mistake. Estimated Time of Departure takes readers on a journey of one man and his family having these discussions and how powerfully loving and revealing they were. In this funny, moving, poignant memoir, William Donaldson tells the story of how he talked with his parents over an extended period about their end-of-life thoughts and philosophy. He shares the sad, funny, maddening, sweet, and rewarding sides of this journey and makes a compelling and impassioned plea to readers to not miss this opportunity. They were not without sadness and challenges, but by virtue of talking and exploring the topic, the family came closer together and the inevitable passing became, while still sad, a cathartic, deeply rewarding event. Estimated Time of Departure was written to give readers the courage to have these discussions and shows that hope, love, and reverence can be seen by having them.
