Your mother always told you to leave something better than you found it.
Furthermore, don’t we all want others to have a better life because they know us?
But how is someone else’s life actually better because they know you? How is our city better because you live here? Really we each only have three options. We can affect others lives for the better, affect them for the worse or have no impact whatsoever. If we have no impact it is because we are disconnected. If we have any connection at all we will have some impact, either for better or worse.
Is the way you are living your life impacting others for the better or for worse? When you die will your family and friends, city and world be better because you were there? If not, why not?
