There’s a myth that we can control our legacy. It’s wishful thinking. You can’t control what people say about you when you’re dead anymore than you can control what they say while you’re alive.
But if you could control it, what would you want them to say?
What really matters?
Love it? Hate it? What do you think? Don't hold back...
