Indeed.
I have found there is no fear in this - in fact, it invites me to enjoy, celebrate and make the most of this beautiful gift of life...and as you well described: how are we remembered? Did we leave this place better for those we leave behind? When it mattered - what did we do to indeed try to make this world as close to that "paradise" so many dream of - surely it doesn't just happen right? They can't possibly think a bunch of "humans" in a new place just exist and live happily ever after - wouldn't they need to be different?....
Ah - the questions, implications...
Great piece Emmanuel - thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!
