Overview
It’s been said that what you really want is what you want people to say about you when you’re dead. Well, here’s your chance. In conversation with your learning so far, write a two-part essay about how you want to be remembered when you are dead by the people who matter most to you. In part one, write your own ideal eulogy, accounting for the things that helped you develop and sustain the (imagined) life you describe. In part two, draw on our classroom conversation and the various texts you have read to this point to defend the life you have described in part one as well-lived.
