Is legacy,what one consciously leaves for their progeny?
Or should the progeny be pressured to inherit a legacy?
What one remembers need not be what others have left.
Nor does everybody leave,with a quest to be remembered.
Do the leaves fall with the fallacy of feeding the trees?
The falling leaves fall with the wind falling on them.
When the winds of fortune fall upon the progeny,
Fortune fills the bill,leaving the winds to their direction.
Ancestry like the winds,leaves its legacies,and lies low.
It will decay in trunks in the attics,like bodies in coffins.
Once dead,what remains is not one's choice,but chance.
One's memories bind not the mind,to post-life memories.
Legacy syndrome is more inherited,than wished,for immortality.
Even the Gandhi legacy is being trashed into prejudiced bins.
The right to recall others,overtakes the right to be recalled.
Each one chooses how to live,but shies away being snowballed.
P.Chandrasekaran.
