Lately I have been thinking through what kind of legacy I am building- what I am leaving behind on this Earth to make it a better place. While I have many interests in my world, I have been passionate about writing and journaling ever since I was a small child. I’ve had journals on and off ever since I was in second grade, but my current journal is indeed on of my greatest passions- maybe even my legacy.
It may seem a bit morose, but someday the light will leave my life. That is a certainty. Someday these pages of my journal will be all that is left of me and my different journeys, and I wonder what kind of a legacy I really am leaving. I find myself more and more asking what I want this all to be about.
While these pages have really helped me get through a lot of things in my life, my hope is that somehow, someway they have inspired others to do the same. I hope that somehow others may have seen the creative outlets and that they themselves can work through or document their own lives.
This journal I am writing is the legacy I am leaving behind, for whatever it is worth to anyone. Seven journals of 3,00 pages each- it will take quite a while to finish. My goal besides my journal is to build a beautiful work of art to encase and hold all the pages of my life… my legacy. I want it to be a legacy in and of itself- a building project that will take years to complete. I will in no way finish the case this year, but I hope to complete the design, and start crafting it piece by piece- like my legacy being written one page at a time.
