#11

3. As a person of course I want to leave an impact. As a person I want to know that through death i won't be forgotten. That people will stop and take a pause when passing my resting place. For many this is hard to obtain from people outside of their family. So what could I, a normal guy in a world of 6.2 billion, possibly do to leave my mark? Yes, I know you want to hear it Mr. Miles, I could write, but that isn't how I hope to leave my fingerprint on this planet. I want to be remembered by those that I have touched personally in my life, through devoted time and loyalty beyond measure. Through the love and the generosity I have shared. There are people on this Earth of ours that we all care for, even the most disgusting and vile of people has someone that will love them. My goal solely is to put my mark on the lives of those I hold dear, and only once that is achieved will I move on and try to change the world.

2. It's true things are both forgotten and remembered with the pass of time. So what makes the remembered special? When it comes to literature I believe its relatability. Writtings can live through centuries if it's still able to be applied to people's fantasies or day to day lives even then. People are only intrested in what they know and are comfortable with, or what they wish existed, such as a great romantic fantasy.
