Yesterday was a hard day for me. I was in a really bad funk. The thing is that I was thinking about when I die. It may be depressing but it is a fact of life. People are born and then they die. It bummed me out. I started to think of the well being of my kids. I hope my husband outlives me.
If he does out live me then I know my kids will be well taken care of. I often times tell him that he would make a better mom than me. He is more patient than I am.
I have nothing monetary wise to leave to my kids. I have been out of work for almost 2 years.
If my husband and I die together like in a world will end type movie, then I do not know what we will do. I have heard it said that you never know who to leave your kids with because no one will raise them the way you would.
In a perfect world my kids will be grown and I will be able to leave them enough money to help them in the future.
Another reason why I was thinking about such a morbid subject is because one of the suggestions made on a blog was to get you finances together. I have to think of the future. I realized that what is here may be gone tomorrow. I guess that is why my husband does not make plans for the future. I do make plans. I feel the moment I stop making plans then I have given up on one day having them find a cure for MS.
I agrere we must think about th future but we should embrace the future one day at a time. There is not much more we can do because unfortunately tomorrow is far from promised. It is what you root into your children that will continue to live in them and hopefully out live them as well.
