That was really interesting. It's often the little things we do that have a positive impact we so rarely see. If we're lucky we get to know what impact was. In the best of it all we really can do is be the best we can be everyday. Our true talents will surface and we will know where are value lies. Thanks for this postSusan P.

It's a book I've always considered trivial because of its reputation during my lifetime. On the other hand, at least it's popular with kids, and I like the transition you made into our individual legacies.Deidre M.

I think the recognition of those who do such inane feats won't be for their Guinness record. They're more likely to be remembered for their stupidity and keen ability for leaning something that has absolutely no purpose.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683776018495793731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6887747288999897951.post-55344009763437684732014-10-07T00:36:52.556+02:002014-10-07T00:36:52.556+02:00Yes, there are many ways we can be remembered.

When I was young, I used to read the Guinness Book for hours and hours, plus I really loved the Brady Bunch episode where the kids tried to break a teeter-tooter record. As a teacher, hands down, it was also always the most popular book students would read in my classroom library.JeriWBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04560326888524377308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6887747288999897951.post-18179567115587136112014-10-06T12:20:13.669+02:002014-10-06T12:20:13.669+02:00Welli, I had no idea of the origin of the Guinness...Welli, I had no idea of the origin of the Guinness Book of Records - Interesting.
