I also want to develop my character and be remembered by it. I want to contribute something worthwhile to humankind before I die.

We all wanna leave a legacy once we are gone. On my case however, I wanna be remembered for how I lived and not by my failures. I wanna be remembered by those lives that was touched by me.

This is an uncommon quote and it dear to my heart. How I wish people can reason this way. We should make the world a better place for everyone.

I believe that the person lives on if there is someone who remembers him/her. Whether it would be a good or a bad memory.
