I ask this question not to see how many church-goers read my ezine but to share how often I get emotional when I am touched. (My husband Ben would argue that this happens with a good commercial - true! - but regardless, I still say an open heart is better than a closed one however much ribbing you get).
But I digress.
So on Sunday I am sitting in church and they play this video that absolutely wrecked me. So much so I just had to share it with you.

Here's what that struck me as I watched this.
How many men think about the legacy then are going to leave behind?
Frankly, it is easy for all of us to get caught up in the "before I die I will.." kind of thinking.
And we figure we have at least until we are 70 or 80 to "get on it".
But the truth is, we can leave a legacy every day.
With every person we speak to.
With every child we meet.
Every day.
Leave an imprint.
Or let the moment slip away.
I am grateful for Hallmark and designated days because, like on Sunday, it invites me to think about Father's. My own, my husband and all the men I know who are fearless warriors dedicated to making the world a better place because they choose to be men of impact.
And my prayer is that these kind of men come alongside my own son and breath greatness into him.
Ready for inspired action?
I know many of you in my conscious community are women so I encourage you to do two things:
1.) Tell at least one man today what you appreciate about him (appreciation grows greatness)
and
2.)share this video it with men you know have a warrior in them.
To courage and men at cause,
