One of my chores for the coming week is to update my will, which is a shocking decade out of date. There are new people who have come into my life, through birth or otherwise. I will add them with joy. There are also friendships that have fizzled into acquaintances, which I must remove with sadness. I think it's for the best -- if I died today what had been once intended as a sincere gift might come across as a passive-agressive "See, in the end I loved you more."
