People who grow up without a sense of how yesterday has effected today are unlikely to have a strong sense of how today affects tomorrow. It is only when we become conscious of the flow of time that the consequences of action…. become a consideration. It is only when we have perspective on our lives that motives besides immediate gratification can come into play.
