I will hope that at the end of my days my children feel like they got a good mum. One that was available, caring, listened to them, supported them to dream big, and comforted them when it all felt a little too hard. I hope that when I look back, I can be proud of myself for being a good wife. They are the things that breathe life into our world. I hope that my husband will feel I did a damn good job at being a wife.
I know that will require commitment, dedication, patience, and love to achieve. I hope I leave a legacy, much like Dr. Wayne Dyers. I hope those who knew me will associate my name with a sense of deep, collective love.
I hope they will think about their souls and the connection I encouraged them to have with their true-selves. I hope that when those who knew me hear my name after I am gone, they will feel a sense of warmth in their hearts. I encourage you to think about your legacy.
Write some notes about what you want your life to be for and about, and start becoming conscious and intentional about how you spend your days.
Do you want to be a wonderful mother? An inspiring teacher? A dedicated business person or an accomplished entrepreneur? A great volunteer, or a lovely friend and supportive confidant to those who knew you? Grab a journal and write some personal notes about these questions. At any moment our legacy is a summary of who we are and how we will be remembered should we die in this moment.
The definition of legacy is something that is passed on to you from family, including reputation. An example of legacy is family property that has been handed down for generations. An example of a legacy is a college student who applies to Harvard because his grandfather and father both went there.
What does it mean to leave a legacy? It means putting a stamp on the future, and making a contribution to future generations. People want to leave a legacy because they want to feel that their life mattered. Gaining clarity on what you want your legacy to be can give your life meaning and purpose.
What are Family Legacies? All families have a set of beliefs, values, and attitudes that are passed down from generation to generation through the messages that children receive from their parents. Many of these legacies, therefore, can be passed along without a lot of reflection on the part of the parent.
Our life goal is to apprehend the very purposes that God has created us. God is involved in our lives. In simple terms, a legacy is passed from one generation to the next and often refers to gifts of money or property.
To have enlightened them on the ways of the world; to be more kind and considerate and not so aggressive towards people; and to always make your first decision your best decision. I hope that they inspire you to do the same and without needing the wake-up call that I received.
There are two types of legacies that one can leave behind, a positive or a negative legacy. If one is not intentional about the legacy they are creating, an unintended legacy will be created whether you plan on it or not. A cultural legacy is the inheritance of cultural traits that influence our success or failure. They are often determined by cultural practices from centuries ago that have been passed down through each generation.
Legacy is a similar concept as inheritance and heritage. It is something we inherit from past generations and pass to our future generations. Usually, heritage refers to material and economical inheritance, while legacy refers to immaterial and cultural inheritance. A legacy is something we leave behind when we die. A legacy can be comprised of the intangible memories and feelings people hold for you after you die. In some cases, that contribution can be so special that the universe is unalterably changed.
However, for most mere mortals walking this earth, most will leave a more modest legacy that doesn't necessarily change the world but does leave a lasting footprint that will be remembered by those whose lives you touched. You hope your life matters in some way. I know I do. I've been teaching since the age of 22 and teaching is my legacy, my contribution that hopefully enlightened the lives of my students whether they became actors, scientists, doctors, mothers or yogis.
My teaching is a gift that keeps on giving because it leads me to other learning and knowing experiences that I share with others. My purpose legacy is my family: two sons and five grandchildren. I hope I am fully present to be the best that I can be as a mother and grandmother. I also hope that I am leaving a legacy as a good daughter and a loyal and loving sister and friend. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you.
Support the People and Causes That are Important to You My best friend of decades ago once asked me what I thought was the most important attribute of friendship. I replied that support was the major theme of friendship. There isn't any more wonderful feeling in life than making the choice to sustain loyalty to a friend by lovingly supporting everything that is good and right about that person's life.
My friend was an advocate of a few major causes in the city we resided in and I supported those causes, too, as she supported mine. Although we parted ways when I moved out of the city, she would always reach out to me and remember my work, my life and my family. Reflect and Decide What is Most Important in Your Life When you review your life's journey, several ideas may come to mind: Did you grow and perhaps transform your life, make changes when you needed to, find your truth, inspire others, become a leader or influence others?
Touching lives and exemplifying a truthful path is paramount to living a joyful and purposeful life. Your legacy will live on. Share Your Blessings With Others I was walking two dogs the other day -- one dog was totally blind and the other dog stubbornly knew her mind.
I stopped suddenly in the middle of my son's beautiful neighborhood to observe with wonder the late afternoon thunderclouds bulging out from the mountains.
