Of course, our legacies will be temporary. But if our living on the face of the earth for the finite period we're afforded makes a positive difference for some other terrestrial inhabitant, and makes his or her life even a little more meaningul or enjoyable, then we will have left a meaningful, albeit temporal, legacy of which we can be proud. N'est ce pas?
Yes, I forgot to include this.
Can I use parts from yours?

I would like to add this in mine:

“We are here to support each other through our struggles in life. We want to be a positive influence for some other terrestrial inhabitant (all types of life) to make its, his or her life even a little more meaningful or enjoyable.

If we can do these things then we will have left a meaningful, albeit temporal, legacy of which we can be proud”


Is this ok?
Thank you
