For me as someone who doesn't believe in an afterlife, the mark I leave behind is for those who are to come after me - whether I am remembered or not. I hope that in my last breath I can feel that I made a positive difference for them.

True, we do not after all really know who built Petra, or the Pyramids, or Machu Picchu, but those builders certainly left their mark on the world. I think no matter who we are when we die there is at least one person we made a positive difference to.
I have always wanted to visit Petra. I have been in Khafre, the center pyramid out of the three great pyramids in Cairo, and it s something I will never forget - it left its mark.
