"Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope."
       -Dr. Seuss

Don't know what you've got til it's gone

Everyday we live our lives hoping that the lives we live will transcend us. We hope to leave a legacy so that our decedents can have a pretty nice life and an even better name to live up to. But what is there to do when the life you left behind leaves a more lasting effect or rather lasting profit?

I maybe late, but I figured I'd share anyways.
