It's not necessary to do something significant to make life meaningful

In this world, life is the most uncertain thing, and death is the only certain thing. Every living creature is bound to die, and nobody can overturn the law of nature; we are helpless against it. It says that after that, very few people can remember who died. It's just a matter of time before people forget about the dead people. Instead, some people become kind of immortal because they are remembered by others even after they are dead. Very few people can make it happen, and those people do something significant or meaningful so that people remember them. The question is, does it mean being remembered or being meaningful to others?

I think that most people want to do something significant that can leave a great impression on them in society as well as the country, and the contribution should be something that can be helpful for the country and people for decades or centuries. I think that most of the people are actually living in fantasy because only a few people are capable of doing so, and luck and timing also play a great role in such kind of situation. When people chase something illusionary it's hard to achieve. Additionally, everyone has their own life struggles, and very few people can do something significant for society and country after overcoming all the difficulties of personal life struggles.

To be honest, I think that there is no necessity to make it very difficult because doing something meaningful does not necessarily need to be significant, and I think we should try to do something based on our capability. Let me share an example. Suppose a poor person starves for a few days, and if you choose to give food to fill his stomach. It's not so difficult, but the simple act may leave a deep impression on the person about you. Again, you may lend money to a person during a time of emergency when nobody is helping, and I believe that such kind of timely help cannot be forgotten by anyone unless the person is ungrateful.

I suppose you are a government officer, and if you do your work honestly without taking bribes, you will be remembered for sure because in my country, finding such a person is very rare. So being meaningful to other people does not mean we have to do something significant. Contributing from our own position to society as well as to the country is the thing that makes our life meaningful. It's not something that is beyond our reach. Aside from contributing from our position, we just need to be kind and polite. And I think that's enough to make us be remembered in others’ hearts and do something meaningful.

There is no need to chase illusionary significant tasks to make us be remembered or do something meaningful. We should leave those things for those who are exceptional. Everyone is like that; everyone cannot be Elon Musk, and there is no necessity for people to be like him because everyone is different.
