The Hero and The Legacy

I don't really care about people remembering me as something "Great" or "Heroic". Sure, it does sound good, amazing and it makes me feel important (trust me, I don't hear a lot of those things). I don't want to be forgotten, too (I actually have a phobia for that). I want everyone to see me as who I am and not something I'm not. I won't pretend to be 'loving' or 'selfless' just to impress. But thinking about it, having a legacy does sound good... That's if I'll ever have one. I prefer no legacy than a FALSE one.

If people will remember me, I want them to remember me as the kid who always made their spirits glow. Someone who always cheers them up when they're sad. Someone who lightens up the mood with jokes. Someone who can make a hard problem fun. Someone who, even in the darkest of times, remembers how to turn on the light. I want to be someone who causes happiness wherever they go and NOT whenever they go.

"It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness" -Charles Spurgeon.

I also want to be remembered as a person who never gave up on them, who continued to support them even if he declares defeat on himself. A person who says, "You can do it" and someone who made them trust and believe in themselves. A person who believes that he can do better.

"Believe in others. Believe in yourself. If you don't, who will?" - Jon Bon Jovi

"Whatever you want in life, other people are going to want it too. Believe in yourself enough to accept the idea that you have an equal right to it" - Diane Sawyer

"Some people say that I have an attitude- Maybe I do. But I think that you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does-that makes you a winner right there" - Venus Williams

I don't care how people judge me. I don't care if they are impressed or not. You know what I care? I care about how I changed their lives, I care about how God sees me. I care about how I lived my life to the fullest. 

"Don't try to impress people, always be yourself!" - Bella Thorne

You see, having no legacy is ain't that bad. Sometimes, you don't need to be acknowledged to know you're a hero.
