The legacy you leave
All You will leave behind for the world to remember is Your Legacy, so ask yourself :
Will you have earned the respect of your peers and the admiration of your critics?
Will you have acted humbly at the peak of success and graceful in the face of defeat?
Will you be remembered for how often you laughed and brought smiles to the hearts of others?
Will small children and the elderly have been overjoyed to be around you?
Will others have trusted you with their inner most secrets?
Will you have forgiven and offered a heartfelt apology?
Will you have looked for the very best, and done your utmost to build worth, in others?
Will you have fed a hungry child or clothed a homeless person or given hope to a stranger in dire need?
Will you have left this world a better place by the life you have lived?
Ask yourself, what Legacy will You Leave?
