Investing to Legacy

It struck me the other day that legacy is similar to investing...How could one draw this conclusion? In thinking about this, several other questions went through my mind. Why do I do the things that I do? How much of what I do is for me, versus for someone else? What provides me with the greatest fulfillment and satisfaction? Could a person pass an intentionally positive legacy if that person was all consumed with his or her self? You can see where I'm going with this...

Back to the investing thing... I think leaving and passing a good legacy is about investing in the lives of others. Perhaps this goes without saying, but God has clearly instructed us to put other people above ourselves. Invest in others and pass a legacy worth passing!

A slice of the good life

The last day of our hunt was cold and windy, but the sun was shining and the views of the prairie were stunning. Tyler and I were walking alone and away from our group. It was a very surreal experience for me. I feel as though I am entering into a different phase of my life. I am beginning to appreciate my son on a different level as we enjoy the same interests. I am finding it extremely fulfilling to pass the things that I love, on to him. I wonder if this is how God feels about me? Does He feel the intense satisfaction and joy when I accept the things He passes to me?
The hunt itself was less than mediocre, which is why we call it hunting and not killing...But, the ever increasing bond with my new hunting buddy was strengthened by the time we shared in the field. The talks we had, the hours driving, and the time spent with close friends. Funny thing was, I didn't even think about business....Tyler and I got a slice of the good life on this trip, we were blessed.
