I was recently chatting with young woman who was in one of my Girl Scout Troop's years ago, and she told me that but she remembered me telling her to try a new food at least three times before deciding that you didn't like it. I don't actually remember saying it, but it's definitely one of my mantras so I'm positive it was said. I'm secretly thrilled that somebody was listening.I would hope that any one aspect or event in my life would define me. I was a research biochemist that worked in a group that actually increased food production world wide. My ego allows me to believe I did good work. It provided the world with more food, my company with a ton of profits, and me with a good living. Having said that I still think the most important "work" I ever did was volunteering in youth organizations. I was a scout leader and coach for many years. Over the years I have had significant contact with over 600 children. I meet many of these kids later in life that remember specific interactions. It is very humbling. I hope my leagacy is as a smart guy that worked hard and was a good role model for a lot of kids that had little to no male role models.
