The important thing is to continue the thought. Yeah in an individual level most of us don’t matter but that should be freeing, not something we allow to damn us to a life unfulfilled.
In a year nobody is gonna remember you skipped the meeting to go skiing. But you’ll remember the feeling. Live your life, and remember not to overestimate your effect on and obligation to the world around you.
