indeed. humanity evolves, and so progress to improve our lives is inevitable. there is pretty much no point to stagnate.

moreover with the coming automation of many jobs, working on improving our lives is pretty much the only thing that's going to be left to do. (and any kind of exploration of the universe)

it's one thing to not just complain and sulk about how bad our life is right now, as if earlier generations had it any better. but it is quite another to actually work on making life better.

as long as there is a single living being that is not well for whatever reason, we have an opportunity to make the life of that being better.
