What Is My Legacy?

I've had the great honor of talking to a number of people who want to know just that - what is my legacy?
Well, your legacy can be many things, and that is entirely up to you to determine, but I am going to try to help you figure that out in my coming blogs, which will appear here. You see, there are many-
Some legacies might be tangible items created by an individual that will tell the story of their life. Another could be character traits, events of all sorts that will tell the story of a life well lived, the challenges they faced and overcame. It could be the story of your talents, how you lived your life using them that will serve your family with honor. Perhaps your story will encourage many people, and again, it may just be the story that will impact your life, and cause your family to remember you with glowing pride. Are you a writer, singer, musician, artist of any sort?
Do you want to leave something that will influence how you will be remembered by your great grandchildren? If so, then join me and see my weekly posts. You have lived an interesting, and perhaps enviable life and done many things - that you may have forgotten. Let's get you to kick-start your memory. Recall how priviledged you, and we, are to experience this thing called "life," - just to be alive.
For now, give this some thought, then come back once weekly, and let me share the stories of so many others.
Too Old To Create A Legacy?

Several times, I've spoken to people who feel that they are too old, and that they can do nothing now that they are old, in order to create a legacy.
I've heard them say that once they reach 80, they couldn't possibly do anything worthwhile.'HMMM? Really?
Well, Herman Wouk, the writer just had his 100th birthday a short while ago, ....just had another one of his magnificent novels released, (remember the Caine Mutiny? - just one of his spellbinding books) and has started writing his next novel. Yes, true enough, he has been a famous author for his life. And you, have been living your life, thus creating your own special legacy.
Makes this thing about being "too old" a rather lame excuse.
You are living, and no matter what your age, you can still record the best and the worst things you have done in your life. All that you've done is so important. That's being your authentic self, because people will remember , and that will be a blessing for years to come.
Till the next time....enjoy a wonderful day.
