How long does it last?

When you walk away... that feeling that people had when you were around, how long does it last after you leave?

If you make someone mad, it will generally last awhile.  Days, weeks, even years!  People tend to replay whatever it was that made them mad over and over in their head, which often drudges up that same anger again and again.

What if our goal was to leave behind a positive influence that was so strong that it had the same effect?  That when we walked away from a person or a group of people, they replayed their encounter over and over. And in doing so they were able to feel that emotional high again and again.

What happens if we pour into our family so deeply today that every time they have a spare moment, their mind is drawn to you?  How long could it last?

Let's find out!
