what will be your legacy?

aside from material possessions that may be fought over, unappreciated or even squandered upon dissolution of your estate what lessons of life do you hope to pass on to your children or others you care about. What knowledge did your folks pass down to you?

Will you pass on family stories from harder times, or might they be stories of familial success's during better times; are there any skills that you've taught, mentored or would like to?

Once attained an education or knowledge can never be taken from a person, what do you know that you feel needs to be passed along?

How and what do you want to be remembered for if anything at all.

if you take away all the material things the only thing that are really left are your kids, grandkids and friends. i hope my legacy is a group of reasonably self sufficient, decent human beings with a good dose of common sense, a work ethic that will set them apart from the crowd and enough confidence in themselves to swim against the stream when they need too.

my children will pass on my legacy,my strains and my techniques.hopefully making improvements along the way.
they are far to young right now.but im already dreaming about tending the gardens with them...i want to teach them to respect this plant.tell them how much it helps me in my life.
they are very young still and already know daddy is sick.once they understand that it is safe,and actually helps to heal me and in fact is what has kept me balanced for all these
years i feel like they will be more than willing to learn.

crosby stills and nash had it right.
teach your children well!

that is my legacy.who they become.what they take away from these year,from what good im able to teach them...

i want them to be strong men.to believe in what is right and good.
to not stand for injustice.

i pray to GOD that they are able to face what is ahead of them.

S4L, Buddy this topic is likely better suited for folks who aren't quite as private as us deviant potheads are.

I know that I will leave a legacy carved onto stone that will outlast my own children, and that when they look at my name in stone they will feel proud of their family name. But they will also remember that there is nothing worth sacrificing their own integrity for.

my legacy will be any and all information, material or electronic, that i leave behind. i see far ahead into the future, people excavating our great cities and finding cds everywhere, like archeologists of today find pottery shards.

I hope to become microbe food. We come from microbes, and will return to microbes some day to complete the cycle. Legacy is wishful ego centric thinking that won't make a bit of difference to the bacterias and fungus that will consume you...".scrappy

Your legacy can can continue on with your children ,or any new family which is created from your bloodline.But if you don't have kids ,or your siblings have kids and your family tree ends.

Well then you have to ask yourself 1 question.......

"Have you ever done anything in your life that means something?"

Not buying things ,not living well..having fun ..or having money.....

Something that makes a difference? Or a huge impact on others?

Well i haven't...but i don't despair....In the next 20 years ,im going to have make every effort ,to live life to its fullest .And do things i can't now because of certain limiations..And thats enough to keep me happy.:dance013:

Seems I have two sons that will be my main legacy, a couple of books have been written (sort of no sales but a real, small, publishing house) and some really nice tattoos if anyone feels like skinning me!

An old friend just died 59 yo. He was a friend to many but didn´t like himself much.

i'd like to help change people priorities back to sharing and caring more and away from this brand of shallow materialistic greed that has bloated society,,, materialism can be good when people get satisfaction out of making things for themselves but not when its just swapping state printed debt credits for crap made in china (basically by slave labour),,,

to be honest i hope im not remembered for anything because people are enjoying life too much in future,,

this world is a shitter so it has to be our destiny to sort it out,, if i can be a small part in that then as i see it my life was worth alot.

young people today need more guidance than ever with all the bullshit trying to pervade and shape their understanding of reality.

will leave 2 sons that will be the best men i can help them become, a reputation for honesty & hard work, memories of good times, good humor & laughter, & tales of fun out in Gods gardens with friends...i can expect, nor hope for, any more than that.:blowbubbles:

I have 5 children, 14 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. I like some of them and don't like others. like all of us, some will add and some will take away.

I don't believe in Legacies. in fact our whole destructive culture is a toxic legacy. and someone posted they even believe in god?!

hmm ...

Stoner interesting question you post. The wifey and I could never have children but sort of raised several of our friends kids..we love them as our own. My strains and seeds..I haven't thought of what to do with those. My images might be somewhat a legacy for me. I plan on leaving all my wildlife pix to an artist that purchases copyrights from me and then paints my work..it's extrodinairy. My cannabis pix, I'm not quite sure who to leave those to..? I hope to be know as an accomplished artist/photographer someday. I hope also to be know as someone who listened, cared, and tried to help the suffering-because I do. Cheers..DD
