I totally agree. I've thought about that before and definitely take solace knowing we all carry on through our DNA. It's cool when someone makes a (good) impact on history and gets to live on through history too.

Not all of us have kids though

But that's fine, I'm cool with just being a branch on this crazy tree of life.

I meant like our ancestors before us but I get what you're saying!

My 23 and Me DNA report says I’m descended from one of the groups that inhabited Doggerland (mentioned in the article). So yeah, still here.
