This is a quotation, from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s A Psalm of Life, that has inspired me for a long time:
“Lives of great men, all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us,
Footprints on the sands of time.”
Sublime, in the Australian Concise Oxford Dictionary, means “of the most exalted kind……as to inspire awe or wonder,….far above the ordinary”.
Carbon footprints? Is that all that I will leave behind? Or nano footprints?
