Imagine a random person in the 1700s comes to the future just to ask you if they should upset their loved ones, take a chance, and pursue their dreams.

You’d probably say “I’ve never heard of you, or the people whose opinions you care about. No one is gonna have heard of you in the future. So you might as well live the life you want.” And you’d send them happily on their way.

We are that random person. And 300 years from now our struggles will appear the same. Very important to us - and also - irrelevant.
