When you're gone...

The other day, I began reading “The Five People You Meet In Heaven” by Mitch Albom.  I’m not far into it, but I feel like this is one of those books that are intended to make you cry.  Reading about this man’s life makes me wonder what I will be able to say about my own.  Did I live it well?  Or did I waste it?  I know I’m only in my twenties but there are so many things I want to experience.  I hope I leave a legacy behind: not so much for others to look at but for my kids and grandkids to be inspired by what I did and take risks of their own.  I want them to remember me as a kooky old woman who treasured the days of her life and left no moment ordinary. 

So I ask you:  What is one thing you want people to remember about you when you are gone?

  1. When I'm gone, I hope those who knew me (friends and family) can still feel my love I had for them.... and that it makes them smile...
