1) Forming meaningful relationships through continuous commitment to duty helps sustain that commitment over time, even when duty was initially pursued solely for its own sake.
2) It can be difficult for individuals to remain committed to systemic change that may not be fulfilled within a lifetime. Having relationships with others working for the same cause provides motivation and inspiration to continue.
3) Developing relationships with those affected by injustice and fighting for the same cause stems from ongoing engagement and seeing one's liberation as tied to others. This keeps one committed to the duty of enacting positive change.

Responsibility, guilt, relationships worth fighting for justice
o Guilt and responsibility are contingent to the sense of justice NOTE: not action o Our guilt is what prompts us to commit to our duty Justice is what makes us feel guilty The ideal of justice, and the reality of our condition, and the awareness of the reality of our condition – prompts us to start Meaningful relationships are what keeps us committed to our duty o It is possible to form/deepen these relationships through continuous commitment Even if there was none in the beginning, where duty was pursued for duty’s sake Duty for duty’s sake is not enough to sustain this commitment because it alienates the agent from his human nature (kyle the commie) o What makes duty particularly hard for man to commit to is the seeming impossibility of its total fulfillment A systemic order cannot be resolved within a lifetime. Therefore, the agent cannot see the fulfillment of his acts. He asks, “May saysay pa ba itong ginagawa ko, hindi naman ako sigurado kung may naitutulong ako, kung may nasasaktan ba ako, kung makikita ko ‘man ang resulta nito” It’s dependent on our capacity to see how well we could fulfill that duty. That’s why we keep asking kung may magagawa pa tayo, kaunti lang naman yung maitutulong natin. Bata lang naman tayo, hanggang upper-middle class lang naman kaya ko This humility also prompts us to work with others so that we may enact more and better change o It is impossible Knowing the awful reality we are in, it still shouldn’t paralyze us but rather inspire us Because: o There are others that fight with us and for us o There are those people that we wish to protect o There are those we are grateful for o There are those we still wish to make amends with – take responsibility for o Man is inescapably social, he cannot find existential fulfillment from the pursuit of abstract values Man should tie it to the people and his relationship/s with them Calasanz: parang, your acts can’t be there to comfort you when you are sad. It is the people around you that catches your tears
These relationships, specifically, were developed through our continuous
engagement with the people that are affected and fighting for the same cause We see from where we stand: o “If you do not see your liberation to be tied to ours, then it would be better if you leave. But if you do, then let us help each other.” clarify with text
