sereneI don't want to die the way Heather did(*). That is to say, while I'm glad we live in a world where at least in some places, it's legal to get help in dying if you've chosen not to live any more, it's something I can't see wanting for myself.
However, I want to live the way she did, with my ass shaking, and my sexuality as a joy to myself and others. I want to show people that bodies are made for joy and fun. I want my fat to be political until it doesn't have to be any more. I know Ani was right, as she is about so many things: "Every time I move, I make a Woman's Movement."
And I want people to feel as sorry that I'm going as they did Heather. And I want them to talk about how I made the world a better place. Heather made the world a better place.
I want that.
