Death is in the periphery, unacknowledged, but it is a truth as certain as the setting of the sun. All of us will die. While the “how” is not up to us (under normal circumstances), the disposition of our body and our possessions are within our control.
Can you face it?
Sooner or later, you need to. Yes, the law does provide for instances when there is no will (intestate succession) but you may leave more destruction and confusion in your wake (literally) if this is the path you choose. But the law has given you an easy way out (again, literally), and this is through a holographic will.
I always imagine a hologram when I hear the term holographic will. In my imagination, I see a dead person speaking from the grave, telling the ones he left behind how he loved them, how he lived, how he wants things to be, now that he is gone. Kind of a love letter, and a confession at the same time; a bequeath, his last chance to be generous; an acceptance that everything is temporary and that he cannot bring things material, not one, to the great beyond.
