Legacy is a complex, self-reproducing system of knowledge, experience, legends, and theories that continues through generations. It is what remains after the biological organism has finished its existence
A family lineage can be understood as a legacy system in which a person develops, gains experience, enters the structure, and configures it so that it can continue without them
The task of life is to configure a system of experience and knowledge for the generations that follow, so that the system itself can continue to exist
