If you were to look up Legacy in the dictionary it would say, "Something handed down from an ancestor or a predecessor or from the past." There is a blonde hair, hazel eyed angel that is my legacy. She was brought forth to save many lives, including mine. She holds deep within her the very essence of our family heritage. Our traits, our talents, our beliefs. She is our family's blessing and my greatest achievement. When I look at her, I see a garden of peace, love, and beauty. She is truly my Garden of "Eden." :) Watching her grow and mature into an prodigious young girl makes me so proud to be her mother.
She is smart, talented, and radiates with beauty. God took his time on this little angel.
So, when I look up Legacy in the dictionary, I see Eden.
I'd like to meet:

You know what I love about the story of David and Goliath? David's victory came not because he fought well, but because he BELIEVED well.
"But sir," said the small Snoodle, "if you made this incredible land, Can't you make Snoodles obey your command?" The big one smiled warmly, then said to the small, "A gift that's demanded is no gift at all."

I quite agree with you. And the moral of that is: Be what you would seem to be, or if you'd like it put more simply: Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.
- Alice in Wonderland
'Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?'
'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.
'I don't much care where --' said Alice.
'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.
'--so long as I get somewhere,' Alice added as an explanation.

Books:
I was taught that when you visit a king, rather than expect a gift, one should bring one to lay at his feet.
My heart is the most valuable possession on this earth. It is my past, my present, and my future.
And all of it will be his.Of all commodities, love is the easiest, and the most cheaply purchased but if it is for sale, it isn't love.
Some may ask... Even you must have a price?
But I am neither a buyer nor a seller of love.
Suppose a man offered me a more treasured gift... say, a kingdom...
The only gift I would accept, is that man's heart.
I want this man to know who I am.
I want to tell him of my people.
Teach him of my ways.
