The Unlimited Value of A Living Legacy
For many people, their home will be the most significant single purchase and financial investment in their life’s. Most of us protect our home as if it was a pyramid, but like all pyramids, it can turn to ruins. The Pharaohs tried to take their worldly possessions with them into the afterlife; we all know those grave robbers enjoyed the Pharaohs’ wealth.
The world would have been a better place had the Pharaohs looked after the future generations rather than burying generations of wealth and then allowing someone else to steal the next generation’s dreams. Through the Pharaohs’ experience, we have witnessed that we can’t protect ourselves in the afterlife. Hoarding everything to take with us in our next life will only create more questions than answers when you get to the Pearly Gates.
Sharing our wealth is not only through our possessions but our knowledge and experience. We should be living our will; not burying it in the ground or having it go up in smoke. We have a chance to be our legacy; a living legacy that will pay it forward for many generations to come.
I am not talking about a hand out; I am talking about a hand up. By influencing future generations with a hand up philosophy, your legacy could be one that transcends many generations.
I challenge you to honour those who came before us; maybe if we had communicated more and respected our past family members more, we all might have enjoyed and understood what a living legacy is and should be.
Some traits of a living legacy are noticing you have left a positive impact on others. Have you helped enrich other people’s lives, attracted more positive life experiences for people around you, left people in a better frame of mind, and added value every time you came in contact with people? Was how you treated people in a positive manner embraced by those around you and is this how they also handled people?

Would you not want to have a lasting effect on folks and have them genuinely enjoy time spent with you?
Don’t you think it is sad when past generations have to erect some monument to themselves or take care of nonfamily members before their own family when they leave this world?
What will your legacy look like? Are you investing your time staying in contact with your family and friends? Are you leaving evidence that you have had a positive impact on their lives? What are memories do you leave on each visit? Do you ever wonder what you’ll be remembered for?
Every day we hear people say; life is too short and where did that day, month or year go?
Most of us would have jammed more living into our lives if we realized how quickly it goes by. Most of us would spend time living.
Invest some time and think about your impact on others.
Will there be positive markers that people will see and reflect on and know you are and were a positive influence on them and this earth?
