The more I think about it, the more times I go back and forth to South Bend and Chicago, and the more friends I make, I realize that its the people that are important to me and define my life to an extent. Without those valued relationships (and the value I feel I have to them) I think I would feel worthless.

I want my headstone to say:

"It is those who visit this place that give true meaning to the life that once was."


Or something like that.
