You are someone’s ancestor. Most immediately, you are the ancestor of the you of tomorrow … Become the ancestor you’d like to thank.*
Seth Godin
Finality, temporality is … not only an essential characteristic of human life, but also a real factor in its meaningfulness.**
Viktor Frankl
Death,
I cannot do without it,
Asking as it does, that I
live meaningfully today towards
providing tomorrow’s
goodly inheritance – this for
the sake of others:
Creativity,
Generosity,
Enjoyment.^

^These are my three words for what it means to me to be human; yours will be different.
