Watch the movie Tuesdays With Morrie and think about your own life and experience with death and dying. I would like for you to reflect upon your own background and experiences related to death.

• What was your earliest experience with death?
• What were your reactions, both positive and negative?
• Do you remember your first funeral?
• What were your feelings during this funeral?
• What messages did you receive from your family regarding death?
• How was death explained to you by your parents or others?
• Who have you lost through death that was closest to you?
• How have you dealt with this loss?
