Our Life and Legacy

When you think of a great man or woman of the past, who do you think of? Do you think of a wise philosopher, a renowned artist, a progressive scientist, or an illustrious physician? Perhaps you think of a ground-breaking craftsman, a successful entrepreneur, or a great man of faith.

Most likely, the person you are thinking of is an individuals who pushed their field of study, their art form, their spiritual relationships, or even their society forward into a new age.

Galileo

What legacy will we leave behind on this earth? Where can we push our world forward? Maybe we will be remembered as brilliant scholars. Maybe we will be thought of as inspired artists. Perhaps people will look back on us and remember how industrious and inventive we were.

I hope our posterity will remember us for finding a way to love each other unconditionally, and without exception.

When I think of a great man, I think of my Dad - hands down.
