As a teacher and a parent (and friend, neighbor, acquaintance, etc--person who interacts with other people), one of the ways I can live on is to help others learn and grow. I've mostly accepted that I will die, and that gets easier as I observe all the living and dying of plants, fungi, and animals every day. I am not so important as the stories I value, and those can live on for thousands of years.
