What path do we tread in a world full of envy, vile hatred, anger and so much greed?

What legacy should we want to leave behind?

To understand that, ‘Death, a destination that we all share’ is the common door which transcends us to immortality...
...and to do our very best before it’s our turn in line to enter in.

Our footprints will be a map that others who come after will follow - so we should (and must) want to lead right.
My reverence goes to the change makers, the selfless ones who give all they have and all they are to leave this world (and people) better than they meet it.

I’m elated to a place of nirvana, yet I must remember not to show fear - I must will to live out my purpose.

FR: More than any other novel I’ve read, Clade by @cityoftongues shows what it is like to live through a multi-generational crisis like climate change. The pandemic chapter is unnervingly prescient too. theguardian.com/books/2017/sep… #footprints
