Legacy

We will all die one day. That is a fact that will never change.

But we should not fear death, because what truly matters is what we do with our days. It’s not the power we accumulate, the status we achieve, or the money we make, but rather, the relationships we forged and the people we influenced that truly matter at the end of the day.

We will all die one day, but in a way, we never die because we are immortalized, by our legacy. The one we built from chasing our dreams; doing what we love; creating what speaks to us, whether it’s a painting, a book, or even creating a meal just for us.

In every painting we made, book we wrote, song we performed, and friend that we made, we’ve left the essence of us. Even in the friends who only knew us in passing. They all carry with them part of us, and everyone who interacts with them, in a way, interacts with us.

So the years may pass, long after we’ve passed, but we’ll never just be a memory forgotten in the past. We’ll survive through our legacy, whatever that is, forged from chasing our dream and following our passion.

So we should not fear death, nor being forgotten, and live with all of our passion. Chase your dreams, follow your heart, and build your legacy stylized in your own fashion.
