In this essay, I am supposed to talk about how long people are remembered for. Specifically, if there are people who will be remembered forever, or if everybody will be forgotten at some point. I think there is a very clear-cut answer for this question: there is a select group of people that will be remembered as long as humanity survives. I believe somewhere in the bible it says that God’s word will be remembered forever. I don’t know for sure, so take this with a grain of salt. In this case, this means that everybody mentioned in the bible would be remembered forever, and probably not many or no other people will be remembered forever. Really, I don’t think there will be any other people that will be remembered forever. Forever is a really, really long time, almost incomprehensible to man, so I don’t think anybody’s legacy is going to last forever. There are people who might have a legacy that lasts thousands of years, but, ultimately, I think that one day they will be forgotten. They say that when you physically die is one level of death, but you truly die the last time you are thought about.
I don’t really have anything else to elaborate on, so I am going to summarize. I think that only the people in the bible are truly going to be known of forever, and I don’t think that anybody else’ legacy will last forever, even if their legacy does last for a really long time.
