As stated in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, "Death isn't anything. It's the absence of existence." When my life ends, my body should too, which is why I don't want to be buried, rotting away in the ground. Depending on my cause of death, I want all useable organs to be donated to those in need: including my hair, if long enough, for cancer patients, and my skin for burn victims. I'd like my remains to then be cremated, and scattered in the ocean to dissolve and forever disappear.
I'd like to think that something dramatic should happen at my funeral, leaving masses of loved ones in devastation... but really, my greatest fear is the when I die, I'll just simply seize to exist...that my death, and thus my life, was meaningless.
