Well, legacy, it's it can be it can be a bit of a scary word because I think we can get trapped into, I suppose, the bigger things that we've done in our lives and the the this myth that we're somehow going to be remembered in some way, shape, or form one, two, three generations from now. Legacy is really about uh for me, it's about the love and the relationships that you that you leave behind and leaving behind memories that are both, you know, positive but also pain-free. And I think we'll talk about those things in sort of separate measure because they're equally important. And we think about we think about the the the positive stuff, but we also there's a lot of pain that can be inadvertently left behind if we're not if we're not careful about it.
