Everything doesn't revolve around you.

Very little does, in fact. Your biological, economic, intellectual, social, and spiritual contributions to humanity will likely only be felt on a very localized scale, and even then only temporarily. Unless you are a celebrity or some sort of public figure, your death will only be noticed by a few hundred people, a couple thousand if you're lucky; of those, maybe a couple dozen will show up at your funeral, or feel any serious grief over your passing. Most will be largely indifferent; some might even be happy to hear the news. Most likely, you will not die as a martyr for a noble cause, or while saving people from some terrible calamity, or attempting to break a speed record; instead, your end will probably be heart disease, cancer, the slow deterioration of your mind and body, or some sort of accident involving a vehicle or heavy machinery. If you are terribly unlucky, your death will come at the hands of a violent criminal or terrorist, although you are statistically more likely to die by your own hand (deliberately or not). Your metadata, bank accounts, and estate--your social media presence, family photos, legal will, government records, life insurance policy, and personal effects--will ensure your footprint carries on for a few more years, maybe a generation or two if you've prepared well and were prudent with your finances.
