To Cast A Shadow

To cast a Shadow is to leave an impression on your surroundings.

As a tree unfurls its shadow and dominates the environment around it, dictating life and growth within its reach. In blistering heat, it provides a soothing respite from the sun. The sun may inspire life, but the time of shadow allows for growth.

We all hope to leave an impression on our lives and the people who gravitate around us. Our character is the trunk of our tree with your family the branches who spread your love and wisdom. As we cast our shadow on the beings who orbit our world, a permanent impression is made for a life time, our legacy.

With the absence of children, is my legacy tarnished?
