The Value of Life


In light of recent events, I’ve been thinking a lot about the value of life. From those who lick toilet seats in front of a camera in order to chase social media stardom. To greedy corporations running non-essential businesses that force their minimum-wage workers to put their lives on the line. To certain government officials that would rather watch thousands of people die in order to revitalize the economy. To certain world leaders who defiantly stand opposed to safety measures in a foolish attempt to look strong. It’s clear to me that the value of life varies from one person to the next.

The way I see it now, the health and well-being of ourselves and others is everything. We should be doing everything we can to protect that. Everything else is inconsequential by comparison.

    Well said, Jett! Life is infinitely more precious than anything material, in my opinion. I’d gladly radically change my lifestyle like this even if it was just to save one person.

    Covidiots who are too selfish to see outside of themselves make me quite angry. 😦
