facilitates workshops for families interested in building an
awareness of the importance of legacy. Two and sometimes
three generations share their lives, talking and learning
from each other of their heritage and their potential
together. These dialogues are a refreshing interlude in a
world often discouraging of this fellowship.
In this book, Mr. Marwood
provokes readers, using a realistic yet powerful writing
style, to consider the nature of the legacy they will leave
their offspring and future generations. He writes to
entertain.
His Works:
A Legacy Worth Leaving
About the Book:
How will you be remembered?
Legacy is the transference of things from the past. Though
often thought of as a gift of property, it has the potential
to be so much more. Legacy is a gift of learning and a gift
of attitudes. It reflects our ideals and our convictions. It
is consigned through the things we so and the choices we
make. We will each pass on a legacy more profound than we
can imagine.
We have the opportunity to
empower current and future generations to set and manage the
direction of their lives, according to their aspirations. We
can pass on the ability to be productive, the desire to
boldly face whatever challenges life may bring. Or we can
surrender to misery and assign scarcity to those who follow.
We can inspire an
appreciation for passion in life by guiding and encouraging
younger generations towards an intensity in their vocations,
their adventures and their relationships with others. Or we
can dishearten then through reproach and condemnation.
How will you be
remembered? Are you imparting a message of hope or despair?
Will you be remembered because you encouraged or because you
disparaged? Are you teaching self-confidence or defeatism,
passion or apathy? Are you leaving the legacy of your
choosing?
