We're all going to end up as someone's ancestor. Someday, a future individual will look into their family tree and find ME. I guess I should focus on making good decisions!
I have never thought about it that way... it makes me think about the small habits I do every day. Someone might get more than just my last name later on.
I think about that when I’m considering my legacy. Someone might end up inheriting my personality more than my name and that makes the choices I make every day feel more important.
I had a similar thought once while looking through old family photos. Someone down the line will see our names in a record and wonder what we were like. Pretty strange to think about.
