As we check out their achievements and struggles, we are reminded that we too have the possible to leave a lasting impact on the world. However, Hood also cautions us to be conscious of the tradition we leave. Simply as great males have left behind letters that inspire and educate, we too have the power to leave behind our own words and actions.
