Do you think you have made a difference in the world sense you have been here?

When I say "US" im talking about all the good people who are reading your answer to my question. As to why im asking this question. Dont you like to be inspired by greatness? I do.

Update:

I don't mean a difference in your family or you friends, but in the big picture. Give us what you feel was your biggest achievement that affected the world. Like helping pass a law or saving the lives of strangers, or something really big. I really want to here your story in detail, and please be serious. Some may know someone who has done something extraordinary, and if so get them to give an answer to my question as well.

Update 2:

Wow not one person had anything interesting to say. just a bunch of stupid answers.

    There was a terrible storm one night and a large number of star fish were all washed up on the beach. A little girl ran out and started throwing as many as she could in to the ocean as fast as possible. A man asked her why are you doing that there is no way you can save them all. She said the few that I save may not seem like much to all of them but to that one starfish it means everything.

    You don't have to go to extraordinary means to make a difference in this world. Even the littlest things may make a difference.

    C'mon - 13 years isn't very long; I can be excused for not contributing to society in any way.
