A fortnight ago, a colleague invited me to attend a film at Rockford's ornate Coronado Theatre. The film is entitled "Consider the Conversation" and focuses on the end of life. The Southeast Wisconsin filmmakers stress not just funeral arrangements, living wills or powers of attorney, but the importance of making one's wishes for spending one's final days known.
Recalling the 1970s cliche, "Today is the first day of the rest of your life," it made me think that we all should consider how we want to spend not just the end but the rest of our lives.
