When you are 50, what do you think will be your legacy?

  I also think this is a very silly and egotistical question. Why do you want a legacy? I feel in some ways this is because people just want to deny there own death and insignificance so want to extend there life somehow beyond them, but they can't. Aiming for legacy is a losing game, it's meaningless, just enjoy your life and help others do the same.

    Actually, a legacy can honor death by focusing on what is lasts rather than what doesn't. My children and my children's children—generations upon generations will have been shaped in some part by me. That's where my focus ought to be. That's what I aim for. What legacy _will_ you have?
