Fear

My biggest fear is a peculiar one. I am not afraid of spiders or the darkness. I am however afraid of oblivion. I am terrified of being forgotten, through time. I am afraid 25 years from now I will not have contributed anything to society. Like I said normal life doesn't frighten me. Spiders have a purpose, and the darkness is only an effect of a light source being covered. Oblivion however is being unaware of what is happening or what happened. I do not want people to forget me.I want to be able to walk throughout the world leaving traces of me. Writing a paper that is published in science note books. Being the best in field when I am older, that when people are leaning the profession they study me. Thinking about how I have a huge chance of no one remembering me when I die scares me so much.
