What I want to be remembered for

       Throughout life, I have met many different people.   Some have forgotten about me, others have thought about me every now and then.   Then there are other people that I will be friends forever.   I don’t want to be one of those people who forget about after high school or college.   I would like everyone to think of me as being a brave person with good morale.   However, I would like to be seen as someone who truly cares about everyone, young and old; the type of person that makes a difference in others’ lives, and makes a difference in my own life as well. 

 I want to be remembered as the guy who could always make them laugh. I want to be remembered as the guy who brightened there day up by making them smile. I have always been told that I have a gift for making people laugh. Some people want to be remembered by being the smartest or most athletic. But me I make people laugh, I myself get nothing more than seeing the joy and laughter on one someone's face after I tell I joke or make a funny comment. I want them to see that time when they were down, and I said something that made them laugh and change their mood. They say that “laughter is the best medicine”. I have seen people suffering and for a brief moment, and laughter made them forget about the pain, or at least eased it. That is why I want to be remembered for it. I love to hear people laugh at my jokes, and all my crazy stories.

I want to be remembered as one of those people who can make people laugh, and can handle problems that no one can see.   I want people to know that I will stand up for what I believe in.   I want them to know that I always try to do my best to accomplish my goals and dreams, even if I’m serious or not. I hope that I will be able to leave a good vibes imprint on people.

And if they remember me for brightening someone day with a smile, great. If not that is okay. Because laughter is the gift that keeps us giving. And I am proud to be one that gives it so much.
