About This Quote

The end of life is often seen as a time when we are no longer relevant to the world. We are no longer there to change the world, to make a difference, or even to be remembered. However, this is not necessarily true. It’s true that there are all sorts of things that happen in our lives that are so important that they cannot be ignored.

But if you look closely, you will see that there is still a lot of stuff going on between now and the end of your life. You will still have the chance to do great things and meet great people. The end of life almost never has to mean the end of being remembered.
