What is It
FAMILY LEGACIES
Certain areas in life are inevitable. Things that are hard to avoid
such as leaving a legacy. You don’t really have a choice. We may not notice
it, but our day-to-day interactions with our family are already creating one.
The set of values, beliefs, and attitudes are being passed down to children
through the messages they receive from their parents whether they
intended to or not.
All too often people tend to think of their legacy in terms of tangible
things like money. There are many more important things to focus on than
exerting tremendous effort in raising money. One common regret of people
when they get old is that they wish they had worked less and spent more
time building relationships with their families. You see, it’s not just about
the monetary comfort and the materials things that matter in this world. It
is more than that.
Every family has its own heritage. That is, a social, emotional, and
spiritual legacy passed on from generation to generation. Every one of us
has family traditions. Some you may cherish such as holiday gatherings,
others you may abhor such as domestic violence, while some you may not
even realize that they exist. Therefore, some of these can be passed along
without a lot of reflection.
The Emotional Legacy
Aside from financial security, giving strong emotional legacy is equally
important. The human soul needs more than the physical things we can
acquire in this world. Life is not just about ensuring that we have enough
money in bank account, but about the values that we impart and how these
values affect the lives, we leave behind.
Emotional legacy has something to do with us, who you are as a
person, what you have to offer, what are the things that you hold dear, and
what you want others to perceive about you. It has something to do with our
values that we would like to pass on to the next generation. Ideally, we want
other people, especially our children and grandchildren to follow in our
footsteps. We want our loved ones to acquire the good qualities that we have
and eventually apply them in their own lives as they mature.
Creating an emotional legacy starts with living a valuable and
purposeful life. Many of us spend a lifetime raising money for our family and
sometimes forget the things we truly dear in life, both the good and the bad.
We have to understand that the words, actions, and behaviors define who
we are as a person. Being aware of this might help us to be less impulsive
and be more mindful of the words we say.
Giving a strong emotional legacy:
Gives a secure environment in which deep emotional roots can grow.
Cultivate confidence through stability.
Conveys a tone of trusting support.
Fosters a strong sense of positive identity.
Offers a ―resting place‖ for the soul.
Shows unconditional love.
The Social Legacy
In school, children learned reading, writing, accounting, and
management techniques, but in order for them to succeed in life, our
children need to learn more than that. It essential for them to learn the
fine art of relating to people. Learning how to relate well to others will give
them an edge in the game of life.
Key building blocks of children's social legacy include:
• Respect
• Responsibility
• Unconditional love and acceptance by their parents
• Social boundaries
The Spiritual Legacy
A spiritual legacy simply means legacy of faith. Sometimes, people
don’t usually realize that their actions already left an impression on other
people. Some of them are good and some of them are bad. The words we say,
the things we do, the attitudes and values we show, and the traditions we
follow are creating a legacy whether we intended to or not.
Parents can become so focused on providing material things for their
children that they can lose sight of what matters most. Focus on what
virtues and values you wish to leave to your children from not only a
financial perspective, but from a faith perspective as well. Plant an
intentional faith-based legacy that lasts for generations to come. Some of the
ways to build a strong spiritual foundation are incorporating Bible study
into your family life, teach your family to pray, and show them the value and
relevancy of faith in God to remind them to put their trust in God. Do you
ever wonder, how your family will remember you when you are gone? What
are the things that you want to pass to them?
