Just asking the question, “What will be my legacy?” is really helpful. Not because is farsighted, but because it involves evaluating the small decisions at hand. Each one piles up what will be our legacy, whether personal or professional…
It seems too that all we can do won’t necessarily overshadow who we were as we did it.
It’s a question I challenge myself with to keep perspective, and one I’m afraid to encounter if I’ve been failing in my relationships. That’s all the more reason to get used to the question and ask it often. :)
I hope all the little good things will add up to a life well lived and well spent. But most importantly I hope they reflect Goodness and Grace.
What do you think about it?
