We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.
-- Winston Churchill --
Someone once asked me what I wanted to be remember for? I thought and thought about it and finally said that I want to be remembered for the good I have done in the world. Not that is not to say that would want some huge funeral when person after person gets up and talks about how wonderful I was. Now that would be great but does that really measure a man. Think about it when you think about someone great you talk about what they did that was good. How much they changed people's lives for the good.
I get involved in a lot of different organizations in the community. I don't do it so that I can get a pat on the back but to make a difference in a positive way in the world. I may never know how I have done so as it may take time to effect but I would like to think that what I do makes a difference. I don't know if you have ever seen the movie pass it on. That the someone does something good for a person and the recipient then does good and on and on. I do believe that our job in this world is continue the cycle.
