If you can get them to listen to you or watch you lead by example it's best.
It's not so much what you say but what you do in life that people will watch.
So, the best way to have compassion for future generations is to be an example of what you found the most important so far in your life.
I have found that it only takes a few good decisions to have an amazing life.
So, learning to be in the right place at the right time when those opportunities are available seems to be everything in life.
People as I grew up talked to me about planning everything.
The problem with this is:
"LIFE IS WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU WHILE YOU ARE BUSY MAKING OTHER PLANS".
I was so disappointed in my early 20s because I couldn't do what I wanted to in life that I had to fight suicide for several years (from about 20 to 25).
I realized making plans often kill people if the plans cannot be lived.
So, I realized that living spontaneously I might just stay alive so that is what I did and that worked.
I wound up getting married and having my first son at 26 and then starting businesses to support my young family and so on.
Planning wasn't what worked for me. In fact I watched many planners actually commit suicide in college and be gone because their plans couldn't work out either.
So, maybe the best thing I can say to future generations is that if you are living someone else's dream and not your own you might not survive your life.
I had to give up most of the family pride stuff that was handed down for hundreds of years and just try to save myself instead.
If you cannot save yourself first, you cannot save anyone at all because you will be dead.
In order to save the world you have to save yourself first or you can't do it.
By God's Grace
