how will they remember you?

life is so short...
yet so
purposeful
so little time...
yet so much to accomplish.
so make every second worthy of a legacy...
You will be remembered for what you do.  Your actions will define your legacy.  A life full of self centered acts will accomplish nothing.  Actions that are committed to others is worthy of remembrance.  Being devoted to doing selfless deeds will surely be significantly effective in other people’s lives.  The exertions you do for individuals may not always gain praise or recognition,  that’s where characteristics of humility and patience  begin to take place.  These qualities are not achieved over night, they take time and devotion.  Practice makes perfect.  The only way to start is by making the decision. The decision to give all you have for the profit of others.  Any little act of kindness and compassion could spark a life to regenerate into something beautiful.  All we have to do is be willing.  We all are on this earth for a reason, I believe that reason is to do God's will and give Him glory.  We just have to realize our God given abilities, then use them to praise God and fulfill our purpose.  We must step up and serve with all we have, try our hardest, and give the credit to God.  Not everything will be easy, but in the end the reward will be worth more than the cost.

  2. That is very true. Every one of us as a very different talent, we need to know that. Not everyone will be good at everything. I have tried to play the guitar, and it hasn't been working out the best so far. I know that I am going to work really hard for it, and that is okay. You did a fantastic job on your blog! Keep up the good work!
