As you go, you may choose to serve some higher calling such as building the bridges Surreal mentions, however; that is not required to be moral. |
Or, you can recognize how the courage, hard work, and suffering of those who built the bridges personally benefited you and feel a moral imperative to pick up your part of the load going forward so that your children can enjoy the same improvements - or even more importantly, not lose the progress already made.
Or you can be lazy and self-centered.
