DragonRider Posted July 2, 2013 Share #1 Posted July 2, 2013 This is a question I have been asking myself lately. I thought why not put it up here and see what others think about. Its a pretty simple question but thought provoking. I am still pondering my answer. What do you want to be remembered for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daitan Posted July 2, 2013 Share #7 Posted July 2, 2013 I think that the gray hairs I gave my folks are enough of a memory of my legacy as a troubled youth. But, I hope to be remembered for being a man that was true to his word. meaning that if I said I was going to do something, you can count it being done. Not just empty talk, but one you could rely on. besides being the sarcastic son-of -a - bee-otch that I am, hehe. :whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummingbird Posted July 3, 2013 Share #18 Posted July 3, 2013 Being remembered doesn't concern me - I try to do what I can to help others when I can, try to set a good example to my immediate family and when I'm gone, I'm gone as millions before have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peder_y2k Posted July 7, 2013 Share #20 Posted July 7, 2013 I'm no egotist, so I don't care to be remembered. Just like those who went before me are not remembered save for a temporary marker, and so there I shall go as well, with no misgivings. I just know in my heart and mind that the gift of my life has been a true and special gift from the one who made me, and I have lived that life as well as I could under the circumstances that befell me. -Pete, in Tacoma WA USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike G in SC Posted July 7, 2013 Share #22 Posted July 7, 2013 Every time a family member or close friend talks to my wife on the phone, I yell "MeTOo" when she tells them she loves them, hanging up. And she looks back to me and says,, they said "Me too". My head stone (provided by the VA) will include "MeTOo!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidley Posted July 7, 2013 Share #23 Posted July 7, 2013 I suppose I'm like some of the others here... My handshake is my word, and my name, both my Grandfathers told me that. Give a firm handshake and look them in the eye. Dont disgrace your family name. "Stick to your guns" my stepfather (a Marine) told me this and I have followed through with it since I was a young man. If you believe your right dont let anyone talk you into changing your mind. Be honest, and try your best not to impose on others. Give back more than you take. I suppose if I can help 1 person to be better than they perceive themself to be, then thats what I would want to be remembered for. I know there is a LOT of things that I definitely dont need to be remembered for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted July 7, 2013 Share #24 Posted July 7, 2013 As a loving, caring person who gave more than they took. And thankful to the MAN upstairs for life and family and friends. If I made one person smile it was worth being here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
