I agree with you; life is not just about living, but about trying to leave a positive mark on this world. I believe we all leave a mark, whether good or bad; what matters is leaving behind a good memory, and this shouldn’t require any forced effort. My point is that we should simply be ourselves, rather than trying to project a reality that doesn’t exist. The truth always comes to light eventually. Furthermore, if we want to do good, silence is our best companion; if our actions are seen by others, it should be a natural consequence, not the intended goal.
Best of luck with the contest
Of course my friend we need to make sure we live a positive Mark in the world, because it is through that which we will be remembered, and for me that is our legacy. Being yourself is the best way to live a healthy and happy life.
