I write our names on the page. What of it, if the paper will be burned? I write our names in the sand. What of it, if the shore will be washed by waves? I write our names on trees that will be cutand benches that will be painted, but what of it? I will keep on writing our namesbecause in this world of ephemera, You and I are the only constant. Kamand Kojouri
About This Quote

When you write your name on a piece of paper, your name will vanish into thin air. Yet, when you write your name in the sand or on a tree that is cut down and painted, it will be there forever. When you write your name on trees that are being used to make benches, it may even last for 100 years. However, the question remains: Why write our names? What is the point of writing our names? The point of writing our names is to immortalize ourselves so that people will remember us for longer than just a few seconds. The reason I have written our names on trees is because I want my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to read these words about me someday.
