Why
Write an Ethical Will?
|
There are many personal
reasons for writing an ethical will. Here are some of them:
-
We all want to be remembered,
and we all will leave something behind
-
If we don’t tell our stories
and the stories from whom we come, no one else will and they will be lost
forever
-
It helps you identify what
you value most and what you stand for
-
By articulating what we
value now, we can take steps to insure the continuation of those values
for future generations
-
You learn a lot about yourself
in the process of writing an ethical will
-
It helps us come to terms
with our mortality by creating something of meaning that will live on after
we are gone
-
It provides a sense
of completion in our lives
