What Does Legacy Mean To Me

Everyone has a legacy. A legacy is like a message in a bottle, something you leave behind to be discovered again. It’s a story that people are remembered by, whether it’s a work of art or a famous quote. It’s an impact you leave for a place or a person. A legacy is like a treasure chest; all you have to do is unlock it. I want to make my own legacy so I’ll be remembered for something. It doesn’t matter what it is, I just want to leave a positive mark on this school.

Throughout my high school career I have tried to impact the lives of those around me while also learning from those around me as well. Over the four years I have attended my high school,I have grown into a person who is now more attentive of the different people, opinions, and cultures that surround me and this in turn has allowed me become more open-minded. This would be the legacy I hope that I leave behind. When I graduate from school and consequently leave my community, I hope that I have left a legacy of growth. That my experience can be an example of someone else because it is my firm belief that the greatest legacy one can leave behind can be a legacy others can learn from.

I have earned a Legacy Scholarship for a number of reasons. I have attended schools in Mapleton since I was in preschool. Ever since then, I have loved going to school and have had many ambitions for myself. Because of that, I have always thought of myself as a precocious child. I believe I have had many responsibilities since I was young, and therefore making me very independent. For instance, my mom has worked nights for as long as I can remember. Because she would work nights, when I’d get home from school she would be on her way out for work. This meant that there was no one to tell me to do my homework or help me with it. Ever since I was in kindergarten I was a responsible and intelligent student and that has continued up to this date.

Just a two years ago when it was 150 years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed, our current first lady of the United States made a commencement speech at Bowie State University in Maryland. She gave a speech to the graduates of Bowie State University, which started giving education to black community two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. At that time, the school education was held in a small African Baptist church in Baltimore. However, because of such brave inspirited and qualified students who came to learn to become leaders in Maryland and throughout the country, a small church school started to flourish its education environment. So on this majestic

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

If I were to leave one quote as my enduring legacy, it would be “The only person responsible for your success and failures is yourself.”. The quote’s inherent explicit message is that a person is responsible for what happens to them. This message is intended to encourage people to take accountability and responsibility for their actions’ results. On the other hand, an essential implicit motivation of the quote is to counter the inclination of people currently to blame everyone but themselves when their plans go awry. Furthermore, another implicit message of the quote is people need to become self-reliant. In today’s intricate and constantly fluctuating world, people are becoming more and more dependent on others while they fail to take liability

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

What is a legacy? Is it strictly a visible, touchable object? A legacy is not just an object that people can see; it can be a dream or an idea. Although his life came to a tragic end, John F. Kennedy was one of the many presidents that served his term of presidency with compassion and dedication, and also, he left behind an unforgettable legacy to live on for the generations to come. His legacy was both an idea and dream that still affects many Americans today, as he led people to believe that he would make peace between countries. “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty”

The legacy that I would like to leave behind is therefore one with special emphasis on selfless service, leadership by example, and an environment of trust. I must always be cognizant

What is an Ethical Will? By definition an Ethical Will is a document in which the writer shares personal values and beliefs, life stories, advice etc., with the intent of passing them on to future generations. (Definitons, website) I have always believed that a will is only written when one is on their death bed. After this weeks readings I have found it quite interesting to look back at the past 27 years and write my ethical will, knowing that it is about my life experiences thus far. Workshop leader Susan Turnball characterizes what she calls “personal legacy letters” or ethical wills, as a way of capturing “the spark of your soul.” (Rosenstand, page 696) With that being said here is “the spark of my soul.”

A legacy can be describe as many things. Some people leave good legacy but also bad ones. A legacy is the only thing many people remember you by. Many people have the legacy of being a great doctor or a fantastic husband. I would like mine to be about the positive things I did in life. Even when I made mistakes I want people to remember I always tried to fix what I did wrong. Well for me I would like my legacy to be good. I want to be remember as the friend who was there for any one at anytime. The lovely mother and friend who was always there.

There are many ways that I want to be remembered and many lives that I hope to affect in my life. There are also many goals I have that I hope I accomplish during my lifetime. Many people leave a legacy, which is a way that someone is remembered.

Whether or not a person admits it, everyone on the planet has the desire to be remembered. They want to leave an impression on the people around them and leave those people with fond memories of who they were and what they did. For me, the idea of making an impact on someone’s life was my ultimate goal. However, it took me a while to discover how exactly that goal would be achieved.
