Interesting. Very... "get some, go again." This kinda sounds like something I might have posted in 2007.

Do you have a question for the TFP? This seems more like a blog post or something I might find on Reddit.
I can totally comment on the original post, but I feel like you should provide some direction for the conversation.

RE: OP
Well, Doc... this sentimentality assumes that the purpose of life is to have kids so you'll be remembered.
It also seems like you assume that loved ones and relatives are the only way to make your life worth anything. That's sad.
A more nihilistic approach would suggest that we aren't worth anything anyway, so why build vain shrines to dead meat?

I don't need to be married and have kids to feel happy or successful. I'm a proponent of the You Are What You Do school.
Marriage and kids? Pfft. Honestly, I can think of better ways to spend my time and money. Education, travel, tons of tuna.
And what's that old saying? "A hundred years from now... who'll care?"
