What Do I Want to be Remembered For?

I want to be remembered for being a loving person. I care a lot about other people and I love being there for my friends when they need me. I have been told by many close friends and acquaintances that I am a trustworthy person who is good at listening. My best friend Ashley became my best friend during our freshman year of a high school as we walked from the library building to the main building on our high school campus. We had talked a little before then but not much, when she suddenly turned to me and asked if I would keep a secret. She then told me about this crush she had on a guy a few years older then us and she also told me that she had not even told her best friend Leesha about this crush. I was the only one. I asked her years later why she told me this and she replied that she could see in my eyes that I was trustworthy and she noticed that I was a good listener. Those were two qualities she respected and wanted in a best friend. If I am remembered for nothing else, then I just want to be remembered as the one my friends could go to in their times of need to just talk or to find support.
