What is the legacy you want to leave behind?
I never thought too much on legacies, but I mostly focus on how people remember me.
I hope they remember me as someone who, at some point, made their life a bit easier, or at least not more difficult!
I hope they didn’t get hurt because of me, unintentionally.
I hope they found it easy to talk and share their stories with me.
And when they shared, I hope they felt seen, heard, understood and not judged.
Maybe that’s what human legacies really mean—being there for each other, and not being there when someone needs space.
Understanding and being understood.
Accepting and being accepted.
Loving and being loved.
And maybe these things will help us heal each other and ourselves.
Maybe that is our legacy.
