Family wisdom is not enough for national will
Elder guidance has limits. A strong nation needs leaders who connect local life to a larger whole. That will cannot rest only on household wisdom.
Family guidance has real value and real limits. It does not, by itself, address national interests. We cannot build a strong nation relying only on the wisdom of family elders. We need leaders who can connect people to the larger entity. That can come from family elders only if such leaders and their wisdom are already present there.
This nation has already suffered from lack of a national will. Household virtue and civilisational coordination are related problems. They are not the same problem.
