What the "Last name" means to me

Getting a little sentimental on you!

I was driving to work this morning and I heard something on the radio that triggered this thought in my head. The thought of when you get married that your wife takes on your last name. This just hit me hard as if you REALLY think about it, your kids, your pets and your wife all now follow a name that your father has, your grandfather had, and the generations previous to them. What a BIG BIG deal!

We are here for a reason everyone. Some choose to live their lives of average and in the shadows. Others try to make a name for themselves. But one thing that will never change is your family history and how they are remembered. The idea that my grandfather's name is now being carried on by my children, and my wife just is a great great feeling to have, and I have an even more profound respect for this idea of marriage.

We have only short amount of time here on earth, and your family name can go unnoticed and fall as a blip on the radar. OR you can choose to let your family name live forever in history! This is a new motivation for me! I want my family to be remembered forever. Not for selfish reasons, but for the good we did and the mark we left positively on the civilization. We are a race of many negative outlooks, with this small thought today I can choose to not have my family be thought of a negative descendant, but a family that left their mark for all their future generations.

Now I challenge you. How much pride do you have in yourself? Do you want to change your "stars"? Do you want to honor your family tree and do better than anyone before you and teach your children the same idea of being proactive and great! I know what my choice is!
