About "Dead but Not Forgotten"

Will my children remember who my granddad is or was?

This made me think about if I will be remembered?

If you have not done something great in life for instance if one has not composed a great piece of musical geniuses or made history like Mandela and his believe in freedom or painted something phenomenal then chances are one will be forgotten after 3 or so generations.

When one has done something to make a mark on this planet then you will be remembered, then when one dies only the family cries for them but there tears are dry to the rest of the world, because the rest of the world do not feel the pain of the loss, but instead wonder about and appreciate the wonderful piece of whatever that person has done, accomplished or achieved.

About Michael

Its funny how people are so in tuned with themselves, for instance somebody can be so sad and bitter inside but will shine bright and will be as beautiful as a sunflower the sun. There thoughts are never truly shared with the world and they most probeberly never truly will. What I am trying to paint is paintings that they can relate to. So that they can know and understand that they are not alone and that there are people that think about them and that share the same feelings whether they are happy, sad or even are afraid of being forgotten.
