Driving force of an Atheist

The only answer I could really fathom is to make strides in life in hopes of making a difference in further generations.. but of course that clashes with the thought of "Well my life meter is going to reach 0 someday, so why not just do what I want?" Within federal laws of course.

So I ask you, how did you get over this hump?

How about trying to think about it from a different perspective. Try not to think of what you will be remebered for but rather the impact that you are making (made or could make) in people's lives. We don't always realise it but people will remember us for simple acts of kindness. I think the here and now is very important.
