A Trip Down Memory Lane - Your Legacy

When all is said and done all we leave behind are our memories. Our stores of love & loss; success & failure are like water colors that fade with time. Some we wish would disappear and others we wish would live forever.  Some of the greatest lessons learned in life come out of adversity so what you choose to remember and preserve from your life can be the stepping stones for others.  If you decide to share your legacy, it can help your loved ones grow and be better people.

Hindsight is always 20/20. It is easy to look back and see the good and bad. It’s when we are going through adversity or faced with decisions that the obvious is not always clear. When you take time to share your experiences and lessons learned, you are helping someone else learn and grow from your experience. Your memories can make a difference in someone else life. That’s only if you choose to share your legacy.

Instead of living life with regret, you can chose to accept the things you cannot change and commit to making a difference. Your legacy can extend well beyond your time on earth. When you open yourself up to others, you are allowing your memories and experiences to show people a different way. We all have moments where we are proud and also disappointed. The greatest growth opportunities can come when we learn to get back up and share our failures & triumphs with others.
