The same process works going forward in time; in essence every one of us who has children and whose line does not go extinct is suspended at the center of an immense genetic hourglass. Just as we are descended from most of the people alive on the planet a few thousand years ago, several thousand years hence each of us will be an ancestor of the entire human race—or of no one at all.
The mosaic of our shared ancestry can be drawn forwards and backwards. Not only can we look to the past and cherish our shared ancestors, but we, too, will become the shared ancestor of everyone a thousand years beyond us.
You know … if we have kids.

The little-known art of beloved physicist Richard Feynman, born on May 11, 1918.
I love this man so much. If I can be like 1% as interesting and awesome as he was in teaching science to the world and embracing the beauty of creativity, then my life will be a success.
