Yes, very much so. As Starfish pointed out, even if your name is eventually forgotten, you definitely affect those around you, and your behaviour will have a trickle-down effect on succeeding generations. The classic movie It's A Wonderful Life, which I love, gives a great illustration of this. George Bailey had the privilege of seeing what life would have been like if he hadn't existed, and it shook the self-pity and hopelessness right out of him.

Every single person on this planet, no matter how insignificant they may think they are, makes an impact on those around them, and we should never think we won't have a legacy. We all do. And I hope mine is a positive one.

LOL, I was just about to invite all of you over to my house to watch It's a Wonderful Life, before I read your post. We're thinking alike!

Good job.

Well, I'm never having kids/family, so I suppose I won't be having a legacy.

I'm 21.

Awww Love,
you don't need kids and a family to have touched the world in a lasting & valuable way...
we all touch and change the world around us.

We all leave our mark on the world,
We are each a "main character" in the UniVerse...
