Very salient considerations in our present circumstances with profound implications for our legacy to our posterity. We are offered the opportunity today to work together to break free from our masters, by the work they themselves have done to destroy the old system of corrupt governance that has so long been lamented by we who have yearned for better.

The generations we invest our lives and treasure in preparing the way for will not have this opportunity. They may look back in gratitude on us who today make their serendipity and happiness certain, if we together seize the day and build that happier world they will inherit. I would like the children of my children's children to be glad I did them that service long after I am dead, even if they have no idea who I am, or what I did to so bless them.

What I would not like is if they lament their circumstances, or worse, that they never lived to see a dreary day of slaving for their masters, because I did not make a way for them to live. I do not want the children of my children's children to be unhappy, or to never have been at all.

These voices you have shared here understand this. Their people have been decimated for centuries by plague, war, and politics by deception, yet their message is one of joining together to overcome our present enemies and exigency.

I will also say this is what I seek to do. I do not work for wages, or just so my hours aren't idle, but to serve my people, both those whose homes I repair, their posterity, and my own, the children of my children's children, that they might together enjoy their good company, glad of their wonderful world they have received from us, who have together, out of our desperate hour, joined to defeat the enemies of humanity who seek today to enslave us all, and set us free from our subjugation to overlords.

The possibilities before us are awesome, beyond our abilities to comprehend. The tools and technology at our fingertips promises wonders we cannot conceive, sights prophets have never seen, and could not have believed if they had, because they are so much more wonderful than anything we have ever experienced or known.

Let's not fall into craven obedience for a bit of ease, to merely stave off our conquest by merciless murderous thugs for a few more moments of mesmerization by our baubles. Let's come together, set our shoulders to the wheel of progress and freedom, and make it happen.

Thanks!
