Individuals live finitely, and society exists infinitely, if it does all it must, and holds to a good, working morality...Consider what life is... life is a quality given by the living to the living... Ever life is a link in a chain connected on either end to the past, and to the future... No one can keep it... The best anyone may hope is to preserve it, by handing it off to others, our children...And that notion presents a problem to people living in societies in decline...People who do not enjoy their lives do not which to share their misery with children, and given a choice, unhappy people will spend the lives of their children on luxuries of the moment...The less societies work as forms the more people look to their individual lives as the sum of their existence... It is because the fact escapes no one in doomed societies that the end is near, and their powerlessness to affect change makes them hang all the more onto their individual pleasures...

'Working morality' hmm?

Life is not history then?

Even if life is histories preserve, or does it always go bad?

History is/was the form of respect we deny ourselves today (only ever a today), old man and child new born is instantly forgotten (for gratifications sake, which is always present never worth recalling) with this lack of regard for history we disregard ourselves.

The end is near,
just for the only individual needed part participation of/from each of us. Survival.
The end is near, for each of us. (We may even be in our own 'Last Days')
The only individualistic correct from is that of ones own form. Survival.
Even if for the benefits of others one must survive.

Pleasures of the individual is what we give the name 'sin'.
For it benefits no one but ones self, whcih as we said always is easily forgotten, diminished and dismissed.
