Why do those of us who want this
Want our family around when we’re dying?
Could it be because we want
One last chance
To find our strength in our vulnerable intimacy?
To share our highest selves in our deepest tears?
To love as deeply as ever we can?

:- Doug.

Love is choreography
Love is improvised
Love is improvised choreography

:- Doug.

The game, the fun, can take us deeper. It is not surface, can be seen by all of us as deeper once we reflect. Deeper partially because of the pause to reflect, partially because of looking at things from a different angle, partially because we are giving dignity to the topic at hand.

:- Doug.

Why a game? To get us to open up; get us thinking about dying; keep fun in it all; get us thinking more deeply about conversing with our families.

:- Doug.
