saw life unfair for people who grew up in life at disadvantages worse than his, and found he couldn’t follow a god who allowed terrible things to happen to caring, innocent people. So as Justin lived his life, he chose to take his own path and choose the religion Taoism, where followers do not believe in god, but Tao which stood for someone’s peace of placement in the world. Justin didn’t know if there was a god or not, but either way, he chose to not believe in someone he could not agree with. All of this led Justin into a career of healthcare, but not just throwing medications as people like Medical Doctors commonly found in his day. Justin chose to become a Nursing Doctor, which overlooked someone’s full care like how the ailment would affect them, emotional needs, along with prescription of medications.
Justin met his soulmate during his first year of high school, Brianna. As soon as the couple saw each other, they fell in love and since then, have stayed together through the hardships and struggles that come with relationships. After Justin finished his bachelor’s in medicine, Justin and Brianna decided to have their first child of three, which came a few years later, and are the loving children who carry on their family legacy, alive today. Those children would go on in life to have three grandchildren for the first child, one from the second and one from the third, equaling a total of five grandchildren of Justin and Brianna. The final home Justin died in was the second home he purchased, two years after the birth of his last child. Justin spent hundreds of hours researching home care, so he could feel proud of the place his family lived in. Justin lived in that home for forty-eight years before he died at the age of eighty-two. Before Justin and Brianna lived in the home that became his final resting place, they had lived in a two bedroom apartment with their first child, then moved to a two bedroom house, before their final house. Justin died on August 13, 2077. Justin was retired twenty-three years before his death, and spent his time with his wife, traveling the world. Justin spent his final day like any other, getting up for breakfast and sitting down to play video games, a hobby he held onto from his childhood, especially after his wife had pass two years previously. During his morning session though when he was laughing, Justin’s lung collapsed, a problem he faced many times throughout his life, but this time it proved fatal when his heart stopped, and couldn’t be restarted when found.
Justin lived his life to the fullest, always taking adversity head on. Justin grew up in a life of hardships in every way, but despite all the problems, he showed life can always be overcome if you don’t give up and try harder. Brianna loved him for his endless love and compassion, while she enjoyed the perks of him always wanting a better understanding of his surrounds to solve problems, like computers or cars. Justin left an image of a loving father, who would give anything for the people he cared about to succeed in life. Justin’s funeral will be held in the Rockwell Funeral Home, near the home he died in. Justin will be buried next to his wife, in his family cemetery, where his relatives have been buried since 1782, in Omro, Wisconsin. Justin felt this to be the perfect final resting place with his wife, because it was in the country, on a hill overlooking a small river and corn fields. A small memorial statue of the medical symbol Rod of Asclepius will be placed on Justin’s grave to represent the path of helping others he had chosen. A memorial will be held after, at a restaurant he chose in honor of his passing, paid by him from a fund he set aside.
Initially I felt a bit of fear strangely, when completing this assignment.
Recently I faced a near death experience, and this assignment has brought back some of those feelings of mortality, and questions like I am satisfied? However, after I spent more time on this assignment, I felt an acceptance come over me, because I realized I lived life for enjoyment of myself and others. This realization helped me decided how I wanted to die, and I decided to base it off of how I actually could. Some details were hard to describe about my life, because, while I like to plan everything out for my life, like a road map, I choose to leave somethings to the wind. In all, I’m left with a queer feeling of calmness and happiness, which I hypothesize is due to a belief in meeting all my life
goals.
