Well, that's the point. Even if you became a modern day hero or cured AIDS or invented something, in a few decades it might matter a little. In a hundred years you would be lucky if someone remembered your name. In a thousand years, it's likely no one would know who you were.

In five thousand years (assuming humanity is still around by then) it's all but certain no one would know who you were.

In a million years, our culture as we know it will no longer exist.


In a hundred million years? Well, then we start getting into the realm of our race as we know it no longer existing.

Is there a point to that? Likely not. Life is a cruel and random thing, the universe is destined to collapse, etc etc.

But the flip side of that is that you don't have to let that define your experience here while you exist. Since, ultimately, there is no point to life, you get to decide what that point is. If you want to affect the world, go out and help someone who needs help. You would be surprised how many opportunities there are for normal, seemingly talentless people to do something as simple as providing food for someone who is hungry or being a voice for someone who doesn't have one.
