Tim Russert passed away this week. He seemed like such a great guy with a passion for his work and his family. It's been amazing to watch cable news these last few days and see the love and respect so many people had for Tim all over the world. I cant help but think about Tim's legacy as I watch tribute after tribute. Tim leaves behind a legacy of excellence in his field and more importantly a great love for people. I am sure that his family and many colleagues will carry Tim's legacy forward for generations to come.
I spent some time this year pondering my own legacy. One thing I discovered was that my actions do not always line up with the legacy that I hope to leave behind. This is a tough pill to swallow but it has helped me to think about how I am spending the precious time I have on this earth and reconsider my priorities.
