To be or not be remembered

By Rottiegirl from Academy of the Redwoods in California

“ I think that a birthday party, and when I was in sixth grade I think, and for one of my friends. I met one of their friends who was there that I didn’t know and I talked to them. I talked to that person everyday, and they liked, I don’t know, introduced me to things I wouldn’t have found otherwise, and just been my friend.”

“ I don’t think I really want to be remembered, at all. I’m fine with not being remembered. I think a lot of people want to be remembered for doing something grand or good, I don’t know about me. By my friends and family? I don’t know."
