*Immortality*

I think that each and everyone of us wants to believe that our lifetime left a mark or an imprint on the world, in some way, shape or form. We want to know that we lived for a purpose, moreover, we want to be remembered for who we are and what we did. We are all vain individuals in the long term. Vanity is a fundamental part of who we are.
Just look around and you will see this reflected in how we want to be perceived: the way we dress, smell, eat, live or the homes we inhabit. Vanity is not to be thought of as a negative thing, it can be gloriously positive!

How and what would you want to be remembered? Would it be your writing, your food habits, your tastes, smells, lifestyle or your work?

For myself, I want to be remembered for the beautiful children of mine. This is a testimony to all that I believe is important in my life. I have never wanted million dollar ventures, fancy labels, expensive cars or homes. Although my career as a nurse has been a good one, it does not define who I am. Just my children, my grandchildren. I believe that they will represent everything about me that I believed was good, morally true and important. That is the impression I want to leave..........
