Principles of Fatherhood: Why You Must Leave a Legacy Behind

If every person really thought about the legacy he or she would leave behind, perhaps his or her life would be lived quite differently. The brevity of life is a humbling experience. Everyday, people come and people go. This is the drama of the human experience. The people we remember are those who have taken the time and applied the effort to make a contribution that will outlive them. This is at the heart of the Principles of Fatherhood.
Think about it for a moment. When you die and leave the earth, will the world even take notice that you occupied its borders?Or will it rejoice that room has been created for something more worthwhile?Interestingly enough, the answers to the above questions are not a function of age, race, or gender. They are a function of choice. We choose what kind of life we will live. The kind of life we live determines the kind of legacy we leave behind.
