Legacy matters: what will you be remembered for long after you are gone?

Hello, everyone.

I welcome you to my blog. If you fail to live right and make sure that while you are here you make an impact on the lives of both friends, family, and neighbors, then everything about you dies with you, and very little or nothing about you will be remembered. The importance of making an impact and making sure that your impact is felt by those around you becomes very important because long after you are gone, the only thing you will be remembered for is the impact you made while you were here. If you fail to make any, then your memories and everything about you die with you.

I strongly doubt if there is anyone out there that does not want to be remembered, even if not every day. At least from time to time, those whose your time here had an impact on will remember you and wish you were still here. Sometimes they see things and are like, If you were here, you would have done things like this or like that. Sometimes I try to imagine what it would feel like dying and everything about you is forgotten; both friends and family move on like you never existed because you did nothing to be remembered with.

Dying and being completely forgotten can be really scary; you become a thing of the past. If you fail to make an impact while you are here, it will be hard before memories of you cross anybody's mind. Imagine there are 365 days in a year and you are only remembered on one of these days, and not even for long; more like memories of you just breezed in and breezed out. If you fail to make an impact, you will be forgotten. The way the living move on after one dies makes it necessary to make impacts, even if not on everyone's life that of those who you impacted while you were here will forever remember you.

Some people are remembered for good, and some are remembered for bad. The truth is that both good and bad impacts leave memories of you running through people's minds when you are gone. It is left for you to choose what you want to be remembered for. Do you want to be remembered for good or for bad? All that depends on the impact you make in the lives of people while you are alive.

For me, I want to be remembered for a lot of things, one of which is my career and achievements. No one dreams to be small. I have big dreams, though the system is against but that should not stop us from dreaming big and pursuing that dream of ours. Also how I treat people, not to brag, but I don't treat people badly. I try as much as I can to be nice to everyone who crosses my path. I have had countless compliments on how I treat people, and an I am sure I will be remembered for that too when I am long gone.
