People have the power to do both. We do belong to greater groups than merely ourselves. Where we came from and those who came before us are part of who and what we are.
Groups are only needed to come together to do
something that they cannot do on their own.
God created us with our own thoughts for a reason.
We do not have the power to read someone else thoughts.
By looking at nature.
It is clear to me that God intended for people to only come
together to solve problems such as building a home.
One person cannot build a home by themselves easily.
So they need a team of people to do that.
Once that group task is over.
We are all individuals who seek our own experiences and have our dreams.
Where you come from isn't as important as what do you plan to do with your life.
Your parent's job is to teach you common sense like the 10 commandments.
People are born into troubling families all the time.
If they say "I came from a broken family... I will be nothing".
Do you see how that's a problem?
People are also born into successful families.
If they say "I was born with success.. so now I must be handed success".
Do you see how that's a problem?
So where you come from doesn't matter too much.
It's all about following your dreams to determine how can you contribute something of value to the WORLD. Not just your own people.
No matter where you came from.
It's going to be up to each person to determine what to do.
You cannot look at your cultural upbringing of success or failure.
Then assume you will take on the same path as your ancestors.
Each person starts with a clean slate.
Your parents can only teach you things.
But you will still have to fail and grow on your own.
People have the power to do both. We do belong to greater groups than merely ourselves. Where we came from and those who came before us are part of who and what we are.
And when you said they are a part of you.
That's not completely true.
Elon Musk is a successful white man.
That does not mean you are successful because he might share similar cultural traits to you.
It means nothing.
Other than he is one of the greatest inventors of all time. But that is HIS story.
Not the story of others from his native land.
