True and that makes it even more visible how little the future cares for you.

My mum is the only one who likes to look through our holiday pictures.

They will be there and no one will care.

Only some ml tool to potentially tell my future Familie members that I might have been depressed based on pictures and the ml notes it down for potential medical relevant information.

No one will know what I liked and disliked. No one will see that my life had ups and downs.

I really thought Facebook would be a great thing. Sharing and seeing what my Familie is up to but no one is using it for sharing family pictures. And I myself I'm sometimes annoyed by too many WhatsApp pictures.

I do get why it is like this but realizing and accepting it took a bit

How much do you rally know and remember from your ancestors which is more than a handful and always the same stories?

How did that really influence you?

We can look back, we are not a magic generation unique to all the other generations before us. We know what's going to happen with us and our legacies.

It is a simplified illusion.

I always wanted to do ancestry for my family (family tree?) And I realized and still realize how far away people really become.

My last grandpa will die soon. I know his stories everyone knows but I don't know what he would have voted, what his favorite food is, what music he liked.

He has dementia now and forgets that he is at home and asks go go home.

What do I know from his life really?

He will end in some online tool as a name, two dates an image and lines connecting him to other family members.

I thought about making a legacy somehow and if I would make children I would create a family book and create rules which would share my thoughts with every future generation and everyone gets reached to follow it and enhance it like having Familie values and keeping them.

But at the end of the day I do realize for myself that this will not work as imagined and it doesn't matter at the end anyway.
