Legacy
On July 10, 2005, Doug Allred (of the Kaysville 22nd ward) gave a lesson in Sunday School in which he asked us to ponder what we have learned from our parents, and what we want our children to have learned from us . My response to the latter half of the subject was the following: first, I want my children to have learned how to receive personal revelation. Second, I want them to have learned respect for others. Third, I want them to know that God is real, and that he hears and answers our prayers. Fourth, I want them to have learned that if the result we desire in life does not happen, it is likely that we must change ourselves in order to achieve it.

A wonderful list, although I would add that respect goes along with service for others.
