Efforts and outcomes are not specifically designed to benefit oneself. To what end or in what name have we come to achieve them? For King or continent resolved became to deliver those things which benefit the common good or all. How freeing and absent regret the ideas of service present themselves.
There is no sweeter nor more respected position then a man standing for friend and family. What then of those who give themselves to feed the unnamed or unknown? How then are men judged for protecting the feeble, hateful and indigent? Love is never consistent when offered simply to those of good regard or payment ability.
To sing, write, dance or fight for the mouths of the unfed eschewing one penny of self-edification is the greatest self-edification available. Helping the community to deal with crime, deterioration of assets and raising children, in safe measure, are some of the least rewarded yet most needed efforts in township. Why aren’t mayors picking up trash to set example? Why aren’t politicians leading school, street and life rebuilding projects to demonstrate the volunteerism that made America clean and safe?
These are not the days of self-fulfillment but the moments where the glues that bind society must be applied with caution and intent. I get it we all want to be king of everything. I understand that you are being callous because you have relegated yourself to self-gratification in the shadow of threats upon all people. I get it that in self-defense you have stated, “I got mine and yours just don’t matter”. This is the path to rapid and certain destruction and erosion of anything that found your nation safe and good.
If it is reconditioning or re-education that your remand, then start with the ideals of the Good of the Nation or the Common Good especially in common law? We have learned the wrong things in life and those who wish to repair this deficiency must not be labeled the bad guys or miscreants when in fact they are the answer to the ills that befall all of US. If you refuse to serve yourself, you will most often find that the good that you’ve done for all in fact benefits you in time. Teach the Sovereignty and the Grace of God Almighty as His Love is offered as all love is issued with Choice. Not the misuse of the eradication of the unborn which is a fallacy of mega proportion but the understanding that Freedom always begins with a choice. Among which Love is the greatest gift given that demands an acceptance or refusal by the party offered.
