Are we giving too much importance to this term? What if we don’t bother much with this idea of what will we be leaving behind and all that stuff? And then calculating our every move based on that image we eventually want to build for others to see. How about we keep making stuff and just move on?

And after we are long gone, there is someone who stumbles upon that stuff we made, our perspectives we put out there in the world.

And you know, they connect with it instantly. Maybe with all of it. Because all that we created and shared, it somewhat resonates with them on many levels.

Ya, it could be a whole bunch of people, or maybe just a few. What the heck, maybe it’s just that one person who really gets it.

And that person makes an attempt to contact us, only to find out that we have left this world long back.

They get to hear or read or see in bits and pieces how we strived every single day to learn something, to try something and be the best version of ourselves.

They then treasure those stories along with whatever we created.

And probably say to themselves, “I really wish I could’ve met this person.”

Who wouldn’t like that? I know I would.

So to repeat what I said at the beginning, just keep making and move on. For there is someone out there whose life you will enrich, someday.
