Do We Have A Value?
A Price Tag …
He is worth in gold and we should employ him, so to profit, you are a waste, you aren’t important, who do you think you are? You’re amazing. She’s cheap, he’s bad.
We hear and use these words around us, we also read and see these acts fulfilling each day even in these present times. Our tense of present and past determines our conversation, but the intent and outcome stays the same.
Material Things
We love cars and a beautiful home and clothes and watches and our TV shows. We surely keep ourselves served with these things, all material things as they bring to us small joys and comforts, all essential for our living. We spend to purchase them all just as we can afford them. Some find it expensive and for a few rich, buying these are just some loose change spend.
We decide the purchase understanding if the purchase is worth the price that the product is quoted or priced as, so we think its cheap, expensive or just right and make the buying.
All material things we encounter including food and others we do value or we can at least ascertain a price, so to buy. So material things have a value.
Sandy’s Mom waited besides him as she held a rosary and she was praying. Sandy was hit by a speeding bike, it was an accident that had him in a state of danger and the doctors were treating him hard so as to save his life. Clara loved his boy to even switch to save the boy against her own life. He was her only boy, her family, after her husband had left them both for another woman. It ended well at the hospital as Sandy was discharged after two months, he was saved.
Clara was willing to exchange her own life for her son if choice was an option. She was rich but all helpless as like the material things she had bought at a price were not all the same as the life of her child, she couldn’t buy a life if her son indeed had not to survive, to pay and save his life, her son had no price.
Do humans come with a price …
Nature never had humans tagged a price. Humans have many other attributes namely rich, poor, racial, strong, weak, wise, foolish kind of typecast and more.
Can we quote or ascertain a price.
The era when slavery breathed, humans especially the blacks and brown race were sold for a base price to begin that would scale up to bid and strange these humans would buy fellow humans after biding on them.
Yeah money exchanged for a life. Humans bought fellow humans and the gems of the Natures creation … (humans) had the gift and the wisdom to measure the worth of the fellow beings, like weigh fellow humans worth and fix a price.
Factors that concluded a price were;
Age of the being.
How strong he was.

Beautiful if she was a woman.
Skills…
And if came with a family.
Hail not everything that our ancient ancestors were part of, this surely stunk.
Were they humans then thus a tangible product to do business on and it happened then.
Happened then we say, but today there ain’t a slavery, there is mere judging or its further synonyms like concluding, considering, reckoning of fellow beings like mentioned at the start as worth in gold, cheap, good and bad. We can rank any fellow beings like ascertain a price that he or she is of their worth.
Only difference remains that humans aren’t slaves sold in a market, the market is indeed a sphere of our day to day living that we use to gauge a human worth like we do to other products we buy like car, food, clothing and more.
Skills do matter in times of today and indeed is a measure mode of a persons worth. Humans surely deserve to be recognized for their skills as it surely profits.
Skills are highly essential as the person works really hard to attain thus, which other fellow beings were too lazy to acquire or were not fortunate to acquire the same as were their consequences.
Weighing Worth In Todays Time
Starting with measuring fellow beings as worth in gold, amazing and a few as bad, ugly and cheap isn’t appropriate form to measure fellow humans and being less ignorant of it’s consequences to the other person titled disrespectfully, this is not what the Author of Nature ever advocated.
A lot of reasons are involved in the non similarities of the humans and their skills and talents as many a beings have first just their survival to attend to then gaining the required worldly abilities and expertise. A car or clothing, a phone or a TV are inconsequential and can be engaged with maybe for a next birth, today remains to just feed the crying stomach. Thus was why in the past a few humans had not revolted from being treated a slave, they had a hungry belly.
Clara was rich for the material world but poor to save her son’s life, he survived to draw to her kind of like the wisdom that money can’t buy life.
Human Value And Price
Price no human life but value them. A cheap or a ugly to you is rich and beautiful for the same human’s family. They value his presence even the publisher of nature desires them.
Every life is a pearl, some shine bright in a glitzy store and a few are mudded and stored in soil. They both are with merits. Shun those wounding words.
We all have come with a decided pattern and weight for life, each painting with a brush, contributing towards the canvas of the present time.
All beings imparts to the era of the earth in the present time, his or her presence with other living species holds the preservation and continuation of Nature that has survived years, that science records in billions. Each runner is running his track of life.
We all are branches of the same Nature’s Tree, not just the fruits, even the fallen leaves have their worth. Value the other for its presence, material wherewithal's are just loose ties, tie hard the respect and moral regard of the other surviving being.
Left dissolved in soil will be your Worldly Stature and wait not to regret the day you stand behind the being you called worthless on the Day of Heavenly Verdict … Respect Life
