Underneath the fundamental basis of life, lies love. This very love holds society together. Without this fundamental element of the human spirit, families and friends would not make sense. There would be no reason to sacrifice, to give, or to come to the aid of another. Love is at the root of all things that humans hold as good. Now, this type of ‘good’ is fulfilling, and not to be confused with a pleasure sense of good. Compassion, affection, forgiveness, and sacrifice, just to name a few ‘good’ values, can all be dissected into their simpler components. One will find that love is shared in the structure of all of these. Noticeably, love is found in high concentrations in actions or values that shape and maintain relationships.
Without relationships, the human race is lost. Families no longer would exist, causing a world of people living for their own interests. When one thinks of the greatest punishments in today’s society, besides death, solitary confinement will likely come to mind. A state of exile is not natural to a human being. Thankfully, love bridges the gaps from person to person, and forms bonds that give a person more to think about and care for than merely him or herself.
Connecting and building relationships is actually what the Pro-Life movement is about. Being pro-life is a way of loving. It is feeling affection and compassion for others. It is making every person feel as if he or she is wanted. It is knowing that everyone has a meaning and is greater than any odds. Being pro-life is means being an example of one who loves, and one who especially demonstrates the love a father and mother have for their children. True love is an inseparable bond that conquers all obstacles any person may face. Being pro-life is letting people know of this love, in order that every person alive and who is to come can witness and contribute it someday.
