124 Human nature 1

What is the point of the life that we are living?

Most humans wanted to leave some sort of mark into the world, to leave something behind to be remembered by, to be immortalised. Others however forever wished to remain anonymous, to fade into obscurity and to leave behind no traces in history.

What to be truly accomplished if we just slide by? Leave nothing of ourselves to be remembered? If we have accomplished nothing have we truly lived?

Is it human nature to want to be remembered? Or is it the opposite do we wish to fade into the background?
