"I am a tiny, insignificant, ignorant lump of carbon.
I have one life, and it is short
And unimportant…
But thanks to recent scientific advances
I get to live twice as long
As my great great great great uncleses and auntses."
--Storm by Australian Comedian Minchin

It's feels like a crime if I don't make the best use of my short life to give back to the world.
