“Panic” for Life

It appears that panic and hysteria have become the world’s go-to response in recent times.

But, where is the panic for the lives of infants who have been aborted? What about them? Why does it seem that for so long women have allowed the government to decide whether or not they “deserve” to be a mother? For too long, it appears that not enough energy has been placed in finding a concrete way to protect the vulnerable in our society, thus leading society down a dark path of destruction and emptiness. Think about it: instead of fighting for the rights of the born and unborn, people fight over frivolous things; and instead of panicking about things they cannot see, the infants they can see, are ignored. Therefore, I don’t call for literal panic, but I do suggest that men and women spend more time protecting their children. And women, please value your natural ability to bear children. Also, it is imperative that in the midst of concern and uncertainty, pray and pray often. Prayer should be a constant in your life no matter what. God’s blessings, be healthy, and stay safe:

“Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me…Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me…Do you not believe, that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. But the Father who abideth in me, he doth the works…I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you. Yet a little while: and the world seeth me no more. But you see me: because I live, and you shall live…Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid.” [St. John 14: 1, 6, 8-10, 18-19, 27]

Marketing for Life

People who are skilled at marketing often know how to effectively promote a business. Once their business gets the desired attention, their potential customers increase; and so do their sales.

For example, the major pharmaceutical, fast food, and clothing companies and their affiliated businesses have mastered the art of marketing. From my observation, these companies have a clever way of drawing its audience and building customers and revenue. However, these companies often target those who are either misinformed or uninformed. In addition, the tactics used to promote their businesses and products, often do the opposite of cultivating healthy life values: they often bombard us with various ways to overindulge, overspend, and be unhealthy.

However, this can be fixed. My suggestion: people who have skills in media and communication, business, photography, and filmography, for example, can be a major asset in marketing for life. We need it. The world needs it. People who have these skills can come out in record numbers and create more billboards, commercials, photos, television programs that promote pro-life messages.

If there is someone that you know among your family, friends, or co-workers–if you are bold enough–that has the skills I’ve listed above, then maybe you can encourage them to find ways to creatively and positively market-for-life. Creativity doesn’t always have to be lucrative; but it can be spiritually lucrative, especially when it values human life and helps others do the same.

Men and Life

Men play an important and unique role in life. Naturally, men have an instinct to protect and show strength. However, these natural abilities are often labeled with the phrase, “toxic masculinity.”

One has to wonder why this phrase has become mainstream? To consider a man’s willingness to be protective and strong as “toxic” creates a serious dilemma and can have negative results. For example, men will most likely be at risk of second-guessing what role they should play in life in general, and with women in particular.

It’s for this reason that men may also hesitate to have children; or when they do have children, they have a higher chance of becoming fearful of responsibility. Moreover, when faced with a pregnancy, more men tend to go-along-to-get-along, in that they more than likely will allow women and others to have sole influence on decisions that can be contrary to preserving life.

In summary, men have an important role: they too, can actively participate in preserving life. They can do this by being the natural protectors of children from the moment of conception; in addition, men can show their strength by consistently taking their responsibilities seriously. Hopefully, with the active, positive participation of men, the negative debating and unhealthy relationships between men and women can heal, especially for the sake of preserving the life of children today.

Celebrate Life…

Welcome to ybprolife! Thank you for visiting my blog and appreciating life. I hope that this blog can help you answer the question: “Ybprolife?”

When you wish someone a ‘Happy Birthday,’ you are celebrating that person’s birth–that person’s welcoming into the world.

Nowadays, most people tend to celebrate birthdays both privately and publicly. Why then, is there so much debate over whether life is important? From the moment a human being is created in a woman’s body to the moment that same human being is born to the world, there is a celebration of life (i.e., baby showers, gifts, parties, pictures, etc.).

Therefore, the next time you wish someone a ‘Happy Birthday,’ or someone wishes you a ‘Happy Birthday,” think about the reality that life is a gift.
