A ship captain once asked villagers to show him where Father Benjamin lived. The response surprised him-they didn't point to a house or a grave. Instead, they showed him flourishing gardens, healthy children, and thriving infrastructure. One man had chosen to invest his life in others, and decades after his death, his impact remained visible everywhere. This raises a haunting question we all eventually face: What will remain of your life after you're gone? Will your existence leave ripples that continue to spread, or will it simply fade like footprints washed away by the tide? Most of us rush through our days consumed by work deadlines and weekend plans, never pausing to consider whether we're building something that lasts. Yet deep down, you sense there's more to life than personal achievement and material success. You want to matter. You want your years to count for something beyond yourself.
