I absolutely care about my legacy, because: Legacy is leaving the world a little bit better than it was when you arrived; "whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived." 

I've introduced the world to my son whom I'm proud of; he will make a difference as a Palo Alto Police Officer soon!

 

1. I've DJ'd 2,000 weddings over 30 years, I was part of one of their 3 biggest life events.

 

2. I've helped over 700 people become homeowners in the last 24 years;  I was part of another one of their 3 biggest life events.


🤔

3. Hmmm, you know if I'd become an OBGYN, I could have been part of all 3 of their 3 biggest life events. 😂

Nothing for me as I am not worthy of remembrance. Who is? HE who wanted you as a guest in HIS house forever. Now, remember that for that is worthy.

I give zero poops about "legacy".  I care about making a difference in people's lives and having real relationships while I am alive to enjoy my family and friends.  God will take of me in the next life.

I don't think I really care about any sort of legacy I leave behind, I just try to be the best person I can be day in and day out and hope that is how I will be remembered.

I wrote a post on this recently William Piotrowski  and the short version is that my legacy was that I am the father of my children and the husband of my wife.

I want my legacy to be that I contributed good into the world in some way- through a small act of kindness that inspired others, lifted someone out of a moment of despair, made someone feel like they were loved and cared about when they needed it most, encouraged someone to reach their highest potential, and most importantly, to have raised 3 daughters who will add to the good of our world by being good people.

I would say the average person will touch people throughout their lives.  They affect the people who come into their lives  Most of us will be remembered through these impacts and not by name.
