Personal Narrative: My Legacy

What do you want to pass down to your children? From the beginning of time having a family was important. Astonishingly, to have children and pass the family name down is still a blessing today. Teaching the future generation traits and qualities is essentially creating tomorrow’s leaders. This question makes me consider how one simple act can mold people’s lives and accordingly create a chain reaction. One trait I aspire for my children to inherit is my quality of forgiveness. Forgiveness changed my perspective in the world by understanding how much of an impression it has on the world’s faith, perseverance, and love.

live our lives in such a way that we leave a legacy that will impact future generations in a

The legacy that I want to leave is that, I want people to remember me as a good, funny, friendly, and honest person. The girl who was smart and quiet in school, but wild (funny, cool, being myself) at home. I was very nice to people and my friends. People would always say, Aaliyah is so nice and cool. But I’m not so nice when you mess with me, and you’re rude to me. I will give I right back to you. I deserve the same respect from you that I give to you. If you disrespect me, I will disrespect you, because you can’t just disrespect me and don’t expect me to disrespect you back either. I am a person of RESPECT

When my years of life begin to come to an end and I look back on life I want to have a good conscience when I leave the world knowing that I did my best to make the world a better, nicer place. I want to have . . . a good legacy.

I want to be remembered for the good relationships I have with my daughters. They are like friends today and we have fun together. I am a good friend to my friends in life, as I walk alongside them on their journeys. My memorable qualities are I am reliable, follow through, insightful, honest, spiritual, and encouraging.

We all have role models that we always look up to and there are those in my community that admire the person in me and hold me as their role model. It has always been humbling for me and I would want to be remembered for being an example that others found fit to emulate.

I want to be remembered as somebody who puts others first and is compassionate and concerned about the welfare of marginalized groups of people. In my mind, the goals I have for my future carry the purpose of bettering the lives of others. I want people to remember me for this goal so they can hopefully gain a morsel of insight on how important it is not to ignore even the quietest of voices.

Foremost, I have had a great life and surrounding peers whom have truly inspired me in every way possible. I have grown up with strict morals, learned great character through sports, and have been provided boundless opportunities. After seeing my mother's accomplishments as a nurse and the character she had built from this

I want to be remembered for being brave because a lot of people tell me that i always tell the truth. I tell it like it is and i don’t sugarcoat nothing. Also, by wanting to become a Nurse. You almost HAVE to be brave to be a Nurse because you have to be able to go along with your patients especially if they have alzheimer's or something and they are wanting to do something then you have to go along with them because if you argue with them then they might throw a tantrum.

My family has shaped my beliefs and has also helped me archive my dreams throughout my life in multiple circumstances, especially my mom. My mom has made a huge impact in my life because she has guided me to pursue a career in the medical field. I aspire to one day became a nurse to hopefully impact many lives around me in the future and on campus through my studies. Not only has she guided me to pursue a career in medical field, but she has always encouraged me to make positive changes in my life; such as, speaking about challenges in life to the community and always respecting others opinions. My family raised me with the mindset of one of many ways to do it and it's through my church; giving hope to others. As I grew up I found many other ways to improve myself and help change other individual’s lives for the best; such as, volunteering at many events in my community and also by just having a smile on my face walking down my school’s hallway. Now, I want to take that to a bigger level and enrich my education to be a positive influence by showing others that anybody can accomplish their goals through consistency. Doing this would make my family proud from my personal improvement and dedication to always seeking for better ways to leave a positive mark in this world.

The legacy I want to leave shows that learning isn’t always complicated and confusing, if you can just learn one fact every day, it just helps you become that much smarter. Once you understand something, and it starts to add up, often you think of the other ideas that relate to it and it makes education even more fun. I like to learn about one concept and then expand on it. This turns learning those concepts from being complicated to simple, and I have more knowledge of it to teach

As far back as I can remember, I knew I loved laying under cars or trucks and getting dirty. Whether is was with my dad, my uncle or my grandpa, I loved working on cars or trucks. They would say to me, “Chris, I’m going to work on the car, want to help?” and I would get so excited! My early childhood was filled with watching and learning how things under the hood worked and how to fix them. I know that my family wants to leave an amazing legacy behind for me and my family. That’s why they show me all the things that they know. The meaning of a legacy is how someone would want to be remembered.The Legacy I want to leave behind is that I was funny and caring for my family.

4. Legacy: leaving the world with something that can remind people about you, something about you, what you did or what you are known for.

My love for being a positive role model, incited my resolve will to have an honorable legacy. This kind of dower drives me to have faith in goals that I can control. Always trying my best when I am at home working in the family childcare center, once again gives me a successor role. I would also like to be an example of transcendence in my family. Also show that taking a year or two off of school will not always blind your decision to better your education. I personally, was unable to start my education and commit to my overall goal due to my father not lending a helping hand. I needed financial aid to pay for my education and didn’t know where to go to get set up, or who to ask for help. Without his help and tax information I was unable to

A legacy is the first thing that comes to mind when people think of you: some idea you left behind. A few people have had the blessing to have changed the world in some memorable way, while the rest of us remain insignificant and unimportant among the grand scheme of things. However, no matter how small, each and every one of us has left an impression on someone, and that is our legacy.
