Written Words, Identity, and Legacy

In History class, we are learning about identity. So like last week, that's what I'm going to talk about. My question I'm going to talk about this week is what are two things you would like your great-grandchildren to know about you? How would you hope they sum up your "identity legacy?"

Since I'm still pretty young, I'm not sure what to say. I haven't figured out my life's path yet. However, I do would want my great-grandchildren to know what I was like.

My great-grandma died when I was pretty young, but I got to know her pretty well. The only thing I wish that I learned is what she was like before. She wasn't able to do a lot or talk since she was in her mid 90s when I could actually have a full on conversation with her. I wish I could really get to know her and how she was, so that's exactly what I would want my great-grandchildren to do.


One idea I have is to talk about myself when I'm about 30 or 40, and maybe do it every 5 years. That way my great-grandchildren could hear and talk with my when I was younger and really get to know me.

Identity

My question for this week is one I'm still not sure how to answer: 3 words that define my identity. The first thing I think of is what I like. I enjoy technology, so that's one. I enjoy sailing, so thats two. Charlie, that's three

Technology
I wouldn't be where I am in life without technology. It's a huge part of my life. I enjoy computers, games, and learning new things. One things for sure, I was born in the right generation.

Sailing
Its a huge part of my life. I practice up to 6 hours a week. If I didn't do sailing, I'm not sure what else I would do to get out and do something with my friends.


Charlie
If haven't already learned, its my name. It's what makes me special. I can't think of a better name for me that has to be something that defines my identity.
