Statue

 And grave.  2 historical points, often starters for research.  They can be important, but there are many which don't officially exist.  

All over the world, people have crossed over, on trails and right where they transitioned.  Known only to a few, they hopefully fulfilled their destinies.

Destiny might be great or small.  Few are the earth shakers, the history makers.  Yet each does in their own way.   Life matters.  Interaction goes on.

Some of us wish to do our work, live our lives to whatever fate awaits and quietly go on.

No statues to gather poopy.  No grave to tend.  

It could be seen as a peculiar form of Freedom.

And though history researched through objects can be important, maybe that interaction while here could be just as well
