A short essay that ends believe in deeds not in years

A short essay ending with "believe in deeds, not in years".

Explanation:

It is common knowledge that we all regard a man's life based on the years he lives. We all have an expiry date on our lives, with some dying ripe with age while some die young, at times, far too young. But no matter what or how a man dies, it all comes down to his legacy, the life he lived, and the acts that define his life.

But a man's life is more defined by his deeds and not by the number of years he'd lived. Great deeds never go undetected nor do they stay hidden. A man's good deeds, virtues and the 'help' or 'service' given is a far better definition of what one's life is about. So, even if a man dies young, if he had done great deeds and have been a huge influence on others, then he will be remembered more than a man who died in his old age with nothing significant about his life. A dead young man's achievement will overshadow the old man's death, despite the old man having lived more than 70-80 years as compared to a young man in his teens or early 20s. History has also proven that a person's deeds and not years of existence define the legacy of a person. One example can be that of the young teenage Holocaust writer Anne Frank whose diary became world-famous and was considered to be one of the most touching and important pieces of literary work in the history of the world.  This is a true proof of believing in one's deeds and not in years.
