Legacy

Legacy

The legacies we choose to create should be ones that will have a positive impact on our families, friends, and those that know us well.

The best way to have the future that we want is to create it.

We create the foundation for our future with the decisions we make and actions we take each and every day of our lives.

The examples we set reach and impact more people than we could ever imagine. That is why we must always try to be and present our best.

The world we live in is not perfect. However, with the choices we make we are each capable of making our lives and the world around us a little better.

There are times we must make the choice to either follow the example others have set for us or to set the example for others to follow.

The examples we set should light the path for others to see and hopefully follow.

As a parent it is important that we work hard at finding ways to create positive memories with our children.

Children are the most precious gift a person could have in their life. As a parent you give them guidance, support, and never ending love. And if you really want to make a positive impact on the person they will become set a great example for them to model their life after.

The two best things we can do for our children are to give them our unconditional love and set a great example for them to learn from.

We only have one life, we must make it one worth being remembered by those that mean the most to us.
