    There is this quote in a book that stuck to me like flies on shit. It says, “I want to be so important
    that the world here falls apart, stops functioning, after I step out of it.” and I embarrassingly
    agree. I’ve promised myself that I would leave a mark on this world. I will make my life so
    meaningful that people will dread my leaving. And now that I am given a chance to see myself
    close to death, with no remarkable or significant achievement, I realize that life is not about
    leaving a mark, but living contented. Our life is so short, a blink of an eye, as they say, spend it
    enjoying whatever this world has to offer and worry less about what you have to offer to this
    world.
