And you snuck in a valuable lesson about resource management and separating your garbage as well! That's efficient parenting

But seriously, yes absolutely. One can find more positive aspects. I will tell them that when you die, you live on in the people you have met. They all form an image of you in them that will stay with them and will influence them for having known you. It even goes so far that they will have conversations with you in their head after you are gone.
