Life In A Poem (Sorta)

The Best Legacy

"Sir, what legacy do you want to leave behind" An interviewer asked.
"My son has always said he wants to be the best" He said.
"Then he realized that he does not need to be the best, he just needs to be a good man." He said

Be good in the face of failure

Sometimes being the best means being the least

Be good even after you've made a mistake

Sometimes being good just boils down to being able to say 'Sorry'

Sometimes being good is loving the people who hurt you

And making the most difficult choices that may hurt the people you love

More often than not, we aspire to be on the top but we fail to be noble

We lose sight of the fact that everyday is a struggle to just be better

Being good is what kept us together
Being good is what built and sustain our relationships
Being good is what will move it forward, for the future of our generations

It's not the easiest but that is probably the best legacy that a person can leave behind; To always believe in 'Goodness' and just be a good person.
