My mom (and her mom before her) has many "sayings" and tidbits to share. Some are very wise (never burn bridges – the world is a small place). One of the best (and sometimes hardest to follow) is to always try to leave a room better than when you entered. This got us thinking.
How do you leave a room? Are you aware of how your presence might have changed the atmosphere, the aura or temperament of others that were in it with you? Will your presence be felt by the next people to enter? Did you leave a dirty glass (not such a great lasting impression), or maybe straighten a picture that was hanging awry (a definite improvement) or maybe you made a bigger impact – you added some curtains or a piece of furniture that will be enjoyed by others. Of course, there are some who think really big … maybe they tear down walls and increase the size of the room – the type of change that is lasting and will be felt for generations to come.
Lately, we have been talking about how we plan to leave this room on earth. Legacy planning is a very personal and rewarding adventure. Whether planning to ensure that your loved ones are taken care of or planning to take care of a generation to come, we can help.
Give us a call today and let’s start a conversation about how your room will look when you exit.
