We Can Learn From The Legacies Others Have Left Behind

Throughout history there are women that followed their hearts and their passions. These women are an example of what we can accomplish in our own lives. Those that have gone before us can be our inspiration. We can learn from what they have accomplished and gain insight into what we are capable of accomplishing on our own.

There is no need in life to settle when it is possible to reach our full potential. Individuals like Erma Bombeck are examples of women that followed their passion and lived a life doing what they love. Their lives are their legacies.

Erma Bombeck said “When mothers talk about the depression of the empty nest, they're not mourning the passing of all those wet towels on the floor, or the music that numbs your teeth, or even the bottle of capless shampoo dribbling down the shower drain. They're upset because they've gone from supervisor of a child's life to a spectator. It's like being the vice president of the United States.”
