Value of life?

All life has value. We as beings are given the gift of sentience; we can (debatable) comprehend our own existence. It could be what we must do is not view the world in concrete terms but rather by the virtues that make us human; honor, obligation, love and compion. If we see the world in these terms people would come to realize their interdependency and understand the base of our existence and get a better idea of where we should be going. We all share this minute celestial body. When you get any social group together they create a social contract it is based on our need for self preservation, this contract is our form of societal moderation. It must also be said that too many people are so preoccupied with their “afterlife” that they fail to really examine their place in this world.
