Realised this while reading Sophie’s World book.
We do not have many of the writings of early philosophers. So we don’t know exactly what they were thinking. Similarly, most of us do not write or create. For future humans to figure out stuff, we are not contributing to the documentation of the human story, at least not in significant ways. We only consume. You might think that what you have to say is not worthy of being recorded. That’s untrue and unfortunate.
“How could you live and have no story to tell?”
