No one asked to be born, and no one is obliged to "make their mark". In fact, staying out of the news, out of the hospital, and out of jail is not a bad rough set of goals.

As long as we're here, we might as well "Party on", "Be excellent to each other", and, in general, do our best to enjoy the situation until we're no longer.

(all tourists eventually leave; some just take longer than others)
