Scads of shootings in America are shouting out that human life has been devalued. It’s time to re-value human life. Our lives matter! Here are some practical ways to do that:
Treat your own life with respect by overcoming self-destructive thoughts and behaviors. Act like your life matters by taking care of your physical and mental health. Avoid watching, reading, or listening to anything that devalues or insults any human life. Focus your attention on the good that people do, not on the bad things they do.Volunteer. Be proactive in serving others.Realize that anger, hostility, and/or hate cause you and others to devalue human life.Acknowledge that the most innocent form of human life shouldn’t be regarded as disposable.Openly renounce the concept of devaluing people because of their skin color. Refuse to devalue people because you disagree with or disapprove of their beliefs and/or behaviors.Frequently connect heart-to-heart with people who think and see things differently than you do.Be kind and respectful to everyone.Treat every member of the human race as a vital part of humanity–the most valuable thing on planet earth.Avoid being careless with your life and other people’s lives. Pay attention to safety for yourself and others.Check out my book about more practical ways to act like human life matters.
