Being alive is the only time when you can influence something, and as such, when your actions mean something.
When you're dead, it's over. There could be an opportunity for you to make something better for others or for your own enjoyment - but now all chances are gone.
So, why letting go of this amazing ability?
Hey there! My achievements are small, and I'm amazed at your level of organizing, but I also took part in something - I've helped organize locals against illegal construction site in the area. If they would push it, not only it would destroy our small and dear park, it would also severely stress water supply and cast a big shadow, breaking the laws on insolation norms (we live in a very cloudy city as it is).
We organized 24/7 watch and were not hesitant to call the police while others worked with papers and invited officials. As a result, the city governor has personally visited the place and the construction was banned. We were also offered financing to reorganize and improve the park, and are currently working on a makeover.
In the place where I live, people are generally politically passive, but this case has proven to me that even here, change can be achieved.
