That is a great question I have been asking myself.

First I wanted to leave a mark for my kids.

As a writer, I feel like I have to tell my story so that they will hear it from me.

Then I wanted to leave a legacy through my work and the people that crossed my path.

Yet I digged deeper. And I found the answer to that question truly.

Beyond my kids, my legacy, I don't have the answer to the question.

The answer is already in the question.

Let me explain.

How do I want to be remembered?

That is not relevant. Deep down I just want to be remembered.

I just want to have not lived for nothing. I just want to scream.

I am that kid who will carve their name in the trunk or a tree : "Mad has been here."

Everything else I tell myself to answer that question is a lie.
