Legacy, with Julia, part 1 revisited
“Here’s a test to find out whether your mission in life is complete: if you’re alive, it isn’t.” Lauren Bacall said that.
Julia Cameron quotes her in a book about discovering creativity and meaning at mid life and beyond. All I could add is that if you’re reading this, same conclusion: your mission in life is not complete.
Julia then presents five open ended sentences, which I invite you to spend some time with – – –
One. I would like to be remembered as…
Two. I wish I could leave…
Three. A person whose legacy inspires me is…
Four. As a child, I dreamed of…
Five. One way I am already leaving a legacy is…
Treat yourself and those you love to the time it takes to finish those sentences thoughtfully and prayerfully.
And I’ll see you back here tomorrow with what to do next in this process.
