Jon, I was limiting legacy to the idea of what one gives of himself to others while here, not anything to do with one being remembered outside of that, or even connected to that in any dominantly personal way.
hello Jon, I lost my entire email program, besides some others in a crash. I remember a question from you relative to Hitler? Maybe I am wrong? Anyway, I understand the time restraints, no problem from me, when you have time, always good to hear and read you, be it here or there.
Jon, that is interesting, sorry for mistakenly saying 'hitler'. It is Marx and I did find a back up of that specifically, oddly enough for I don't normally have backups at all, not that I can ever find.
I am pressed at the moment but will read the material you sent back then and get back to you on it. I have, long ago, studied Marx and approved of much of his thought, I do agree that socialism is the way of Spirit. I found, in my study, that the politization developed from him by lenin and such ruined the basis. I will get back with you on it Jon, thanks for the inspiration!
My best to you and yours, take care of yourselves.
"Philosophy begins with wonder, and even now it is wonder that causes philosophers to philosophize. At first they wondered about the obvious difficulties and then they gradually progressed to puzzle about the greater coming to be of the universe. Whoever is puzzled and in a state of wonder ... (begins to Philosophize)...",

Yes, indeed. I'm beginning to see my purpose in life.
What is it, Sieg?
I'm still searching!
Siegfried, my online time is severely limited these days, but I am anxious to catch up with you, been missing your exploits.
I agree with your post Jon, with Tony that is. I think this quote says one side of it for sure.
The journey part, yes.
The "legacy" does not really enter my mind as that is based on others opinions that we can influence by our actions that can always be misunderstood.
In the end, though, its about the journey (our growth) and not the legacy.
