When you think of the word legacy, what comes to mind? The Webster Dictionary defines legacy as a "gift by will especially of money or other personal property." A more holistic definition of legacy would be when you are genuinely grounded in offering yourself and making a meaningful, lasting and energizing contribution to humanity by serving a cause greater than your own.
