Your words well done. Like music to me! I agree with all you say until you say
That, my friend, when passed from one generation to the next, is a transferrence of POWER.
It is not power that go from one generation to next. It is influence, reason, knowledge, enlightement and understanding that pass. Even old man working sawah can have this. If you say this is power then OK I understand. For me power mean control over other people. I think maybe we say same thing different way.
Thank you for what you write. I copy it and keep it. You say
To inherit these things is to be empowered by them.
