"I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the Barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise. " Paul "Romans, 1:14. " The Apostle of the Gentiles clearly stressed his status as a legitimate debtor of all and this status is that of any other person in the human community.

Man is himself not only the sum of his own accomplishments, but also the product of innumerable debts to the group to which he belongs.

Each one owes incalculable tolls to the souls with whom he shares existence.

Let us not forget that we live committed to the good will of friendly hearts. . . .

To the wisdom of the more experienced ones. . . .

To the affection of our nearest friends. . . .

To the support and stimulus of our family members. . . .

To the noble impulses of fraternal relations. . . .

Therefore, through the acknowledgment of our common debts, we demonstrate the real irrelevance of pride and of vanity in any heart and the impracticability of isolation in our evolutionary stage.

Debt, presupposes commitment and commitment signifies natural or obligatory redemption.

We are all debtors of one another.

If you still retain any tinge of selfish superiority vis-à-vis your fellowman, remember the many debts which have still not been paid, beginning with your own physical instrument which was temporarily lent to you.

Emmanuel
