[Opinions] Re: Hulda
I would consider naming a child after an ancestor I never knew, but I don't pretend that I will mean anything to my descendants after I die. I may or may not mean anything to them, and I may mean something to some of them and nothing to some of them, and after enough time goes by, it's highly unlikely I'll mean anything to any of them. I don't care about that. That's not important to me. What's important to me is that my descendants will never have existed if it weren't for me. That is my immortality. And I would never think of any future descendants as strangers. They will all be my grandchildren, my great-grandchildren, my great-great-grandchildren, add as many greats as you want. They will be my children.Right now I wish I'd had more children.
