In this life I think we strive to do whatever we can to continue living past our individual moments. Those that are too indolent have children to pass on their genes, heritage, property, reputations. But for the creatives and critics of the world, we may seek to leave a cultural, ideological mark. Be this through art, science, culture, or achievement; it is the creative act that continues our individuality on for the evolution of future generations.
