and it is for this that I must rant. Why does every single person in the world want to be remembered? In all honesty you probably won’t be remembered  that long after you are dead. If you think about all of the dead and forgotten people ( a number probably in the billions) why would you of all people be remembered. Sure people that made enormous dents in humanity and history will be remembered but what are the chances that you out of all of the different people dead and alive, 1 out of approximately 112.8 billion people, will be remembered. And why on earth does it matter if you are remembered? You are going to be dead anyway and last time I checked, dead people don’t care because they are dead.
