RE: Will You Be Remembered? Does It Matter?
You won't be able to receive the pleasure because you will be dead. So we rather say a story to our heads now. We live with a false promise. Even if it happens we won't get anything out of it other then the false hope we feed ourselves in the present.
But if someone knows that he is doing something great for future generations (including his children if he has them) that won't be understood or appreciated by other people at the present moment, if he is an altruist he can still enjoy (receive the pleasure) from just knowing that he is doing a great thing. Cheers!
