Another morbid thread....but not really. ;)

What, if you have anything in particular, would you like to be most remembered by?

I would like to be remembered for my contributions to my school and community, I have 200 + hours, you know? :P
But more importantly, I want to be remembered for the person I am, I don't want to be classified as that 'smart kid', or that 'history buff' or anything like that. I want to be remembered for being sharp of wit, smart, and being an overall nice person. :)

Now how about you?
List the qualities you would like to be remembered by, and also, if possible, list the actions or anything that you have done in life that would be worth being remembered for.

:D
 
i would want to be remembered by what i'd done to the people who knew me and how i affected their Lives. i want them to remember ME and not just the things ive done. if that makes sense?
 
I would like to be remembered as a man who placed others before his own safety, someone who will not hesitate to give a helping hand to anybody, foe and ally alike.

Though sometimes I can be cold and expressionless, I have this tendency of helping others no matter how bad I feel inside.

The only thing I am afraid of (apart of never fully understanding love) is dying and be forgotten or far worse, being remembered as a lonely and bit of a seemingly emotionless (in person) human being...
 
Oh yes, sometimes we're never remembered for being kind to others, it makes me feel sad, though that isn't really the way to think about it.

It's like when you help someone, but you really shouldn't expect them to thank you back, or receive any special award or attention for it, but just the satisfaction of helping someone out should suffice.
 
So you don't want your mark on the world eh? :P

I suppose, but hey, we all have to die at some point, so why not have something to be remembered by? :P
I'm working on mine. :ph34r:
 
I hope I will be "remembered" in a good way. I don't have a relationship with most of my family now(I have good reason). I think the youngest members of my family remember me in the best way. I was keeping a series of diaries since I was 12, but most of them are gone now(I trusted another family member with then, and lost them). I still have my blogs, hopefully, that will leave some memories for some people;)
 
Immortality is something that men has always tried to achieve, one way or another, through actions, or by following rumors about ways to obtain eternal life.

Humans are born, live and sometimes die without leaving their mark on the world. If you believe in immortality then that's the way to do it, do something (GOOD please) worthy to be remembered.

Like Achilles said in "Troy"

"Immortality! Take it!! It's yours!!!"
 
You will never be remembered. Your "legacy" will stem as far as your grandchildren more as a courtesy than anything else. You have from the age of 0 - 10 to get screwed up, 10 - 15 to identify that you're screwed up, 15-30 to unscrew yourself. And then after that, you're married with kids of your own to screw up. All you have is today. Every day is a new day. You can do anything with any day you want. But whatever you do, do for yourself... cause no one else is gonna give a shit.
 
I would want to be remembered by something great. Like a piece of artwork that everyone wants to get their hands on, or a book I wrote. =]
 
I would like to be remembered as someone who changed the lives of others. as someone who made a real difference, and not as just a good role model. I want to be remembered for the words I have said and written that gave hope, understanding, or courage.
 
I would want to be remembered as "me", with everything included. I have my flaws and some people would love to dance on my grave, and that's fine... I won't be remembered for only the good things, though that would be ideal.:)

The good things would be things like "an intelligent guy, a loyal, loving and caring boyfriend/husband, a skilled and emotionful musician, a lover of music, and someone with a good sense of humor." Things like that...
 
Despite how odd this may seem, I would prefer to be remembered for all my bad personality traits.

No matter who talks about you when you've passed on, you'll never be immortalized. However I'd like to think that by knowing my faults, others can either find comedy out of it, or learn from the way I chose to do things. My decisions thus-far haven't been bad, and my personality has left much to be desired, but it's what contributed in the making of 'me,' and I'd like people to acknowledge that as a life lesson; to only be yourself.

Yes my humour dry and sick, yes I can be incredibly lazy, and yes I do come off as heartless most of the time... but it's still me. I'd rather be remembered for being who I am, rather than what I did.
