What Will Be Your Legacy?

This past weekend, much time was spent hanging out around a campfire with good buddies. There was engaging conversation and all the while I glanced into the campfire's glowing embers. I kept thinking about legacy. I had scanned this article, How to Build Your Legacy, before the weekend's camp out.

Some of us have camped and traveled together over the past thirty years. The organizers of this annual camp out, Debbie and Dr. Chip, gather an interesting group of folks, including an emergency department physician, critical care nurse for end-of-life organ donors, a rocket scientist, nuclear engineer, ob gyn physician, employee advocate and a couple of entrepreneurs. All Glowing Embers with amazing life stories.

Check out the article on legacy to have some background for a few of my future posts. I'll be exploring the process, opportunities and possibilities for making a difference beyond our lifetime. Here's some of the working blog titles:

  • Patience - Predictability - and Pickles
  • How Will Your Legacy Make a Difference?
  • Put Some Thought into It - Your Legacy Can Last Forever
Keep on Glowing,

Alan, you have whetted my appetite for your next series of posts. More people need to be thinking about legacy and not only in financial terms. What legacy do any of us leave for those who follow in our steps and on their own path? What may we be leave as evidence of our being blessed to have lived at all and passed this way?

Thanks.
