How would you like to be remembered once you are gone?

Service to others (through my work), fun, kind. Loves a party. Loves animals and tries to help them.

As someone who did something useful.

I don’t think I’ll be remembered for much except by family and friends. There are some legacy items that will remain when I’m gone but it’s stuff most people would not be interested in finding the history of. I think history remembers those who deserve it the least sometimes. There are so many untold stories of people who do good things and never get or take credit for them. We remember movie stars and socialites but not the people who defend our home, rights, build our infrastructure, farm the food we eat, raise our kids….

As a great friend, a loving and fun grandmother and mother and a person who was kind and did some good in the world. A sharer of books and a great cook. A passable artist. A person who bounced back with resilience after some pretty traumatic blows. A person who was involved with the world.

I don’t need to be remembered outside of my friends and family. I just hope they’ll think of me as someone who did her best with the cards she was given, and who tried to make a difference (regardless of how effective any of my efforts actually end up being).

I would like to be remembered through the many volumes of personal diaries I have written. What judgement the reader will make I leave to him, or her.

^^What do you write in those..just curious.

It’s a daily log of events in an uneventful life.

He was a good animal.

As tasty.

I would rather be forgotten.

I doubt I’ll be remembered much. And that’s OK.

I want to be remembered as being “uniquely me.” There is no other way of describing it.

^^ for example?

“Wow! He lived a really long time, and was never a burden to his family, all six generations!”

This is not the place to air those views, not for me anyway, no offence but Fluther just ain’t worthy.

^^ how do you define worthy?

Not a piddling little Q&A site tucked away in a quiet corner of the internet.

Someone who can lift his “hammer”.

An immortal, and still alive somewhere.

He made me laugh.

He kept his teeth brushed right to the very end.

Someone who advocates for others, through my work.

Funny, easy to get along with and a quirky outlook on life. Along with my love of animals as well.

^^ Have you been busy recently? Not so much active over here.

@imrainmaker You talkin’ to me? haha
Yes, crazy busy, cooking up a storm for 3 get togethers this week. Man, time for a little herbal essence methinks. Later, it’s not 4;20 for another 4 and a ½ hours. My just reward cometh. lol
