Good answer chucho. Like chucho said, do your part. You don't have to land a rocket on the moon, or be the next american idol, or anything else to be significant, just be the best you can be and try to make everyone else's life around you a little better everyday and you will reap the rewards of a satisfying contented life. Just because your name isn't Trump, or Gates, or Timberlake, or Jordon, doesn't mean you are any less important in this world. Not everybody can be rich or famous, but you can be just as happy and have just as fulfilling a life, if you choose to. Just because some people are luckier than others, not more deserving, just luckier, doesn't mean you have to put yourself down because you weren't as lucky. But who knows your luck can change at any time.

I've lost several friends in the last few years (in their 30's and 40's) from cancer and undetected heart diseases. They died far, far to young. But the saddest part of losing them, the ones that died of cancer, all had the feeling that there lives didn't matter because they never accomplished anything earth shattering or profound. They weren't going to be written anywhere in the history books, so they felt their lives had been worthless. You have no idea how heartbreaking that was to hear from these people I considered very special. Because they had never written a great book or screenplay, never invented anything, never made a fortune in the stock market, weren't the president's of any major banks or corporations, didn't have their names up in lights, they felt they were failures. A few of them had their own small businesses, were very sucessful entrepreneurs in their own right, but because they didn't make a million dollars a year, felt they were failures. Because they weren't Nieman-Marcus, or the Pottery Barn, or Herrods, they thought they had failed. I couldn't believe they felt that way. They were all wonderful people with very successful lives, by anybodys standards, but because they chose to compare themselves to the few very "lucky", who had made it "big", they felt their lives were "insignificant." Sound familiar? I only hope I got through to them the last few months of their lives, and made them realize how loved and needed they were. They didn't have to be a famous or rich anything to be special in their own right. Maybe they DIDN'T get big headlines when they died or made the national news, but believe me, they are all terribly missed by all of us who knew and loved them. So would you call their lives insignificant? I certainly wouldn't. They were all very SIGNIFICANT parts of a lot of lives.
