Things we do for the sake of posterity


Part of what is not too wrong and obviously not right with our society is that we fail or probably we've failed to acknowledge humanity as a partnership between the dead, the living and the unborn.

Sir Boyle Roche an irish politician during the 17th century asked a now famous question that may very well be on your mind…, “Why should we put ourselves out of our way to do anything for posterity, for what has posterity ever done for us?”

Right as I speak, there are quite a lot actually. Subsequent paragraphs will birth but few of them.

Humans by default, out of carnality and ignorance tends to devastate the bridge between FORMER and LATTER. But we fail to remember that it is our collective responsibility to preserve posterity and to fulfill our duty to this partnership because in the end, everything we do should be done for the sake of posterity.

Posterity is the chronicle of the length and breadth of humankind’s activities, the manuscript of the memory of life itself.

Let's take a walk down the memory lane a bit, historically we could ascertain that so many cultural valuation we capitalize on today are evidence of what our heroes past has laboured so bitterly for. They did those stuffs apparently not so because they could take the glory but for the sake of posterity.

The people who came before us built a civil society, invented a language, created a surplus, solved difficult problems enabling us to each grow up with an astonishing amount of creature comforts.

Unfortunately, so many of us has soiled this efforts profounded by our heroes past, so awful. We are so conscious of what now can give to us letting alone how promising the future can be. In the end genuinely or counterfeit, everything we do is done for the sake of posterity.

The idea that there's something called posterity should guide our hearts the way it should go, it should extend our vision and propagate our ideas by way of informing us of the past and help us to judge the present and future.

Posterity is the bedrock upon which every curriculum of life stands. We must deem it fit that we are posterity conscious so that we in turn understand why we must continue, protect and safeguard liberty and justice.

Just a quick reminder once again that everything we do, we should do it for posterity sake.
