In Our Time

While the celebrities appear worthy of celebrating today how many will be cancelled in the future? When the next generation sees how these individuals lived in their times will all their accomplishments in their time being wiped away by the future? Noah who built the arc that saved humanity in his time may not have been worthy of such merit in the following generation morale. Why didn’t he do more to spread the news about G-D’s wrath what kind of hero is he?  The truth is what Noah did at the time was much better than anyone else accomplished and was probably the best he was capable of.  If only we accepted people as “human” based on the times and culture in which they lived not in some ideal state we would have heroes to aspire to instead of erase their legacy which in some way we should be grateful for even today. In other words, if G-D accepts us for what we are today then shouldn’t we be willing to accept ancestors for what they were?
