Danielle Bean and Lisa Hendey discuss making plans for the future, as inspired by Lisa's recent experience in losing her mother and visiting with her father.

This may not be a topic we love to talk about, but making sure our families are prepared to make decisions for us as we age and to make choices about our burial arrangements and other personal affairs after we die, is an act of great love.

Lisa explains how this topic is actually one that inspires her with a great deal of hope and joy and a loving way to take care of our families even after we are gone from this world. 

How about you? In what ways do you discuss these topics with your loved ones and what are you doing to prepare for the future?
