I feel your pain. I am lucky to have a legacy and two promises to keep me going. The center of my universe has always been my parents house. I am 27 and still live at home. Part of that is to make sure that all my dad's wishes are met. My dad's will was not as up to date as he wished it was, but in the end it is all working out. By staying at home my sibblings couldn't sell the house out from under me. Going back to the legacy and promises let me tell you the story about the land i have always lived on. My great grandpa and a few of his friends bought 2 acres of land out in the middle of nowhere in the 1890's for use as a gun club. After my grandpa got back from WWII he bought everyone out and owned the land. Then in the early 1970's they were having problems with teenagers vandalizing the clubhouse, so my parents bought land on one side of the "Club Grounds" and ended up building a house later. When the house was halfway done my grandpa asked me and my brother's to make sure all the land and the house stayed in the family, i was the only one that gave him my promise. My grandpa passed away a week later. Not too long ago i made the same promise to my dad. The legacy is the land. Now what keeps me going on those bad days is i know i can go home to this land so rich in my own heritage. Sometimes i feel that my dad is still with me, sometimes it's just a smell, other times it's the feeling that someone just sat on my bed. I know my dad is in a better place and that my job now is to give my mom and myself the security and retirement that he was never able to obtain. Everyone has a purpose, mine was easy to determine, but other's aren't. Your purpose could be as simple as my dad's was, being good to himself, his family and helping anyone that needed help with any information or manual work that needed done. During my dad's furneral is was described as a "Hometown Boy" he was born and died in the same city. He never did anything that made him famous, but he touched peoples lives in such a way that many people that couldn't get around very well showed up at his visitation and had tears in their eyes. That i believe is what life is about. Touching people's lives if only for a second, because that second could mean alot to the other person. Be good to yourself and don't be afraid to reach out to your friends and loved one's for a shoulder when needed.
