If you build your legacy you will never die.

It is another rainy afternoon here in Melbourne and I am again watching the ABC on my television 📺.  The quote that is the title for this blog is a direct quote word for word from Gill Hicks. Gill Hicks is an Australian survivor of the terrorist attacks bombing of the London underground back in the mid-2000s. She lost both her legs in that attack and fought for her life, a life she now spends working for a foundation promoting peace. She is beautiful and remarkable and her story is a beautiful one of good overcoming impossible odds.

She makes me think of Susanna and how by writing ✍️ about her both in blogs and in the novel Angel Lady I keep Susanna’s memory alive. I will never forget Susanna and will continue to shout from the rooftop how wonderful she was, particularly in the way she chose to fight her battle with cancer. She was gracious and positive, grateful with a wonderful sense of humour. Gill Hicks reminds me of Susanna, she has the same grace and beauty. Stunningly beautiful from the inside. I intend to learn from these two beautiful role models and hope that when I am gone I will be remembered so graciously and like an angelic presence.  There is something to be said about leading a loving gracious 🙏🏽 life where you spread God’s love and mission and go about your business quietly bringing positive change to the world 🌎.   Gill Hicks’ legacy will live on long after she departs this earth.  I am definitely a follower of her message.
