In the standard dictionary, the term legacy is define as a gift by will especially of money or other personal property or something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past. As for I, legacy to me is something much greater than a materialistic gift, but it is a gift of talent that was bestowed on someone. Or legacy to me, is a path that an individual craved for others to follow and transmitted from generation to generation.
Both of my family came from the country side of Haiti, L’artibonite and Archaie. My great grandfather from my mother side, left a lot of land for my grandfather who is still alive as of today. My Grandfather, since he was young work on the land and now it is one of the most beautiful garden in the little town we live in. Though I have no possession of the land my grand father’s land; I have possession over my late father land, which is in another town in Haiti.
I intend to contribute to my family’s legacy, by going to school and having ties with my culture. I plan to do many great projects back in my mother’s and father’s homeland and help the people who are in the need of help. This legacy has always been in my DNA to help others and as well as my family.
