You do not need universal significance to matter deeply to specific people.

Universal significance is not on offer to anyone, and using it as the standard means concluding that nothing counts. Mattering to specific people is both achievable and, when you look at it honestly, the thing that actually holds a life together. Depth and breadth are different axes.

Name the handful of people to whom your presence makes a real difference. That list is not a consolation for lacking wider impact. It is the substance, and it deserves protecting more than it usually gets.
