Personally, I don't "play with Legos", I "create with Lego". For me The act
of building something using my brain and my own two hands is the goal. Lego
is the medium throught which I express my creativity.

I will most likely leave my Lego to my family. No sense in getting buried
with it. It would just rob somebody else of the opportunity to enjoy our
favorite toy.

Who knows what the future will bring. Personally, I doubt I will ever stop
"playing with Legos". If history is any indication, every time I found an
another hobby, my interest in it would die sooner or later and I always come
back to Lego. No matter what, it always seems to be interesting and new. I
guess that speaks volumes about it`s versatility...
