Leaving a legacy: It is important to consider the sort of world we want to leave behind for future generations. Humans are capable of going out of themselves towards others. To leave a legacy of worth to future generations, people are called into relationship with God, their neighbour and the earth itself. Humans need to change in order to understand shared origins and a future that belongs to all. Some ways to pass on a life-giving legacy to future generations that responds to needs of the poor are: teach and demonstrate the true worth of other creatures and living things; practise the art of self-giving; care for others and things; move away from individualism to a joy-filled communal way of thinking and being; and show reverence for the earth and her people.
