My friend, Sara Roahen's mom passed recently and the remembrance that Sara posted online was a heartfelt, tear-inducing tribute to a wonderful person. So incredibly sad that another wonderful soul has been taken in their prime. Adding to my list, my mother at 38, my brother at 19, my friend at 24, and a multitude of others.
Sara's amazing mother, made me start questioning my life. Recently, I watched a program on television and it has stuck in my brain. If you begin questioning where your life is going...write your obituary.
Write the obituary you want to have lived, what you want to be remembered for, what you want people to think of when they think of you: a fabulous mother, an incredible friend, a helper of the needy, always smiling and positive, a great writer, a great photographer, a lover of music, nature, history, a lover of life.
When you have written this incredible remembrance of you...work backward and write an action plan to get to this place.
Nothing gets you living faster that an checklist. Live your legacy.
