"Your legacy"
When I leave Earth, or the “third rock from the sun,” so to speak, I hope to leave positive memories and influences on those that matter most. Family and close friends are extremely important to me and they are the only people I feel need to reflect on positive things about me once I’m gone. Even though I most likely won’t be one to have the world know my name for doing something great, I’ll still have the achievement of making the close people in my life smile when they think about me. I’d rather leave knowing that they will find comfort in looking back on those times we shared than know that the world recognizes my name. To me, it’s more important to satisfy and create happiness for closer people in my life.
I’ve never been the best daughter, sister, friend or girlfriend, but I’ve tried my best, which is all a person can really ever do. I’ve had fights with every close person in my life, but I look at it as a positive outcome. Those fights have brought us closer. We’ve learned each other’s differences and got through hard times, which made me realize that there’s nothing better than knowing that through a rough time, you’ll still have those people to rely on. It makes me feel obligated to provide them with the same feeling of reliance, to know that I will always be there when they need me, through thick and thin. Even when I’m gone, I want them to remember that I’ll still be there, looking over them, protecting them and guiding them towards the right decisions in their life and helping them through their hardest times, like they did for me.
I personally am one to highly believe in good karma. If I live my life as a good person and to my best ability, it will leave behind the most positive things about me to remember. Everyone in my life that is close, deserves the best and I wouldn’t want to be the one to cause a sorrowful feeling for them. Leaving behind something like a great painting or a theory that changed the way the world thinks would be an amazing accomplishment, but definitely not the most important. I love my family and friends and as long as I know that when they stand up to talk about me, it will be all positives, that will be fantastic with me. I never want to hurt anyone, in such a way that they will hate the memory of me. I want to be remembered for all the good, as I will remember everyone that has done good for me in my life.
