My condolonces.<br /><br />Regarding my own views about legacy, I hope to be attentive to what is from God and what is from my ego. I believe that the fruits of much of my life are not apparent to me, and I find this liberating. Even the fruits now, but also the fruits hundreds of years in the future. Our lives touch so many, and those who we touch affect so many more.<br /><br />Reminds me of a few lines from one of my poems<br /><br />And when all memory of me has passed away,<br />still I will know,<br />still I will know,<br />that I always was,<br />and I always will be,<br />a part of God.Clarence Hellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390178275158252093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4193922242143549291.post-19277902212381371802011-05-15T17:09:54.742-07:002011-05-15T17:09:54.742-07:00Thanks for your comment, Bob.I especially like you...Thanks for your comment, Bob.I especially like your last sentence.

Our church family is an older family and so we've seen a lot of deaths recently - some expected because of age where they have died with their children and grandchildren around them - and some tragic - a motorcycle accident leaving behind small children or a young mother dead because of cancer with two teenage daughters. I'm not really afraid of death but I'm greatly concerned about my legacy. I'm concerned that it's only in the last half of my life that I'm finally understanding what God wants and I'm finally "mature" enough to do it - but so little time remains.
