I tend to think of my life as mine.
Often I'm searching for the purpose of my life, and I couldn't think of the world after my death at all.
Sort of a self-contained life, I'm only visioning my life span.
Nothing in the past matters, and nothing in the future after my death matters....
Reading an aritcle "Crazy Far" in 125th Anniversary special edition of National Geographic magazine, I was quite amazed at the future visions that NASA technologists were seeing.
How human can go to Mars, moons of Saturn, out of Solar System....in 20 years, 100 years, or 500 years?????? They will never know that they can accomplish something in their life. But probably it doesn't matter to them. Look at the time scale of their future vision! Probably they are happy to be the part of the huge project that human is working on.
Look at me! I couldn't think that way. I want to complete something in my life. I don't want to be a mere particle in a huge stream of the history.
After reading "Crazy Far", I felt that I grasp some idea on life's purpose.
