- **Event Description**: A writing workshop for honoring the language of your life.About this EventSo much about the end of life is beyond our control. We can, however, have input into the wording of our obituary. Short and sweet? In chronological order? Just the facts?Join us as we engage in a process that invites us to put down on paper how we’d like to be remembered. Even if what we write won’t be used as our official death notice to the world, it can help us identity what’s important in the here and now. We can celebrate what we’ve accomplished, acknowledge what we missed along the way, and consider what we’d still like to get done in the time we have left.During our time together we’ll take a brief look at the history of obituaries and discuss the challenges we might face when penning obituaries for loved ones. Most importantly, we’ll write about our lives in a way that recognizes what matters to us. This workshop is not about critique or comparison; it’s about honoring our lives in the language we choose. Bring your favorite journal and writing instrument. Refreshments will be provided.Facilitated by Amy-Lyles Wilson: Story Coach &amp; Spiritual DirectorAmy-Lyles Wilson believes it is the sharing of our stories that saves us.
