Your Unique Qualities or Legacy
The Legacy You Leave
You legacy is the lagacy you leave behing. That is, everything you've done in the past---good or bad--and the impression you leave on the people you've met in your lifetime, or in the case of a celebrity---your body of workto be remembered by.
People remember the impact you had on them and they tell stories about you---celebrities often have stories written about them that aren't true because fans sometimes confuse the personal lives with their onscreen lives.
You leave a legacy everyday of your life, whether you realize it or not, just by performing your daily activities.
Two Types of Legacies You Can Leave
A Positive Legacy-- what you have done to make the world a better place.
- teaching your children love and respect
- your legacy lives through your children
A Negative Legacy---when someone grows up in a home and taught low self-esteem. They often find it difficult to find their way and can live a life
- where they can't get it together
- can often lead a life unfulfilled
- they can suffer from depression
- they lack trust in someone else
Creating a Legacy You Can Be Proud of
Ask yourself these 3 questions:
- What do you want your family to remember you by 25 years after your death?
- What cause would you choose to lave your money to when you die?
- What secret talent do you wish you had and why?
What matters most is not what we leave to someone but how they feel inside about themselves and you. It's not the wealth or possessions that someone leaves that's a true legacy.
For instance, in 6 weeks it'll be 48 years since my father passed away and the legacy he leaves me is whenever his hands went up, I remember my hands being raised over my head to protect me. Yes, my father left us financiaaly secure, but he didn't know how to give us what we needed most his love. In November it'll be 7 years since my mother passed away and all I remember is the gift she gave me by passing away 2 days because she was alays so critical and negative about everything I did. We buried her on my birthday and the only sadness I felt when we put her in the ground is that we never found a way to make peace with each other.

My.website is set up to help.people have better road trips but I am.also trying to sell them items to help that I will get a commission on if I ever sell any. How can you put information about these items without the content creater seeing it as duplicate content?
When creating the content to put into your site, it needs to be 100% fresh content (or give credit where it's due). Plagiarism is a big NO NO in the writing world.
For the items talk about how you would use them. Ask yourself questions regarding the products. For example:
Basket/Cooler ( decent size that could hold food/beverages) - Instead of spending money at truck stops, why don't we pack lunch? (feel free to use that)
Emergency Kits - How would you feel if your car broke down and you couldn't keep your kids warm?
It's the little things that will help people on road trips have more fun and keep safe.
Good Luck

Davida... That, last line, said it all!
Life's, too short, no matter how they displayed, themselves.
Make any peace, now... If, only, the peace, that comes, from the "pity"... we feel, for their " lack of fulfillment ", in their lives...
It's never been, our fault, either, Davida... We learned to react!
Now, I chose to respond. I did, make, peace, with, my Mom, and was also, able to give her, some peace, from the tragic, loss, of my brother, back, at 24 yrs., of age.
1973-2010...quite a burden, to carry, Mom.
Thank, you, this reminder, Davida.
