A Return Ritual, If You Want One

Choosing no ritual is enough.

Module 10

Example: Completed Example: A Return Ritual, If You Want One

Fictional example. Sam wants a small gathering after his brother's death and hasn't chosen a date.

My choice: no ritual, later, alone, or with others; timing if wanted
With two friends, later. I will ask about a date when I want to.
People to invite; trusted lay witness if wanted
Mira and Dev. Mira has agreed to be the lay witness and remind us that we can pass.
Something to bring or read; privacy limits
His handwritten soup recipe. Leave his letters in the drawer; he asked us not to share them.
Something I might share, or my choice to pass
I might talk about missing his terrible shopping lists. I also feel angry about a conversation we never finished. I may pass.
How we will finish; who will handle food and tidying
Stop after twenty minutes and eat soup. Dev will bring it in a container he does not need back. Mira will wash up. I can leave before the meal.
