I sometimes wonder as to what will i be remembered for?
What do i wish to be remembered for?(Mostly good things...how selfish of me!)
Will i actually ever be remembered by anyone?(i hope by a few)
Is it really that important that someone remembers me?(Hard to answer this)
Questions like these often travel through my mind
Say for instance if someone were to remember me....
I wonder how he would do that?
Would i be remembered as a sincere person?
As a decent son?
As a good friend?
Or a decent anything?
Or may be someone who identified himself more with a pen and paper rather than speaking?
Or may be someone who dreamed a lot?
Someone who bore a lot of stuff silently?
Someone who never could make friends as such 'coz he was always very quite?
I wonder how my memories would make people feel?
Would they evoke happiness?
Or may be pride?
Or would they generate sadness?
Or sympathy?
Or disappointment?
I'm no saint
I have commited my share of sins in this world
So i don't crave to be remembered as a very good person or some role model
No...i don't deserve that tag
I guess i would mostly want to be remembered as someone who was the best he could be(or at least tried) and who tried to motivate others in whatever way he could
The one thing i don't want to be ever remembered as is a quitter(i have never been one and i hope it stays that way till my death)
That would definitely put my dead soul to shame
No way can i handle that
So....Here's to the memories i have created and i hope to keep creating till my last breath(and hopefully some of them will be worth remembering.)
