I think every person wishes his life to have honor and meaning. Something that will outlast him. For most, this something is his genes - DNA- whatever - that is passed on to his children. The genes carry on, and something of you is carried into the future. Remembrance of acts and deeds, however, is very rare, unless you're one of the few that have changed the course of history in a grand way. Like Napoleon or Mozart. One hundred years from now, no one will remember people who are currently the hot thing.

I get your point, and no doubt your name would be remembered for a few generations... but it still seems all very transitory to me. In the gristmill of time's passage, little survives but dust. And DNA.

 

Great achievements are wonderful and historic. Even these have a limited afterlife. More people are remembered (maybe for a shorter period of time) by how they lived rather than what they accomplished. A consoling thought for slackers everywhere.  lol
