No Value in Violence

Jul 27, 2024

Where is the value in violence? There is none. There is no value found anywhere in violence. 

Violence holds no merit; it neither resolves conflicts nor fosters understanding. It is a destructive force that undermines the potential for peaceful and constructive dialogue. 

What happened to our value system? Without values, we are ending up with Hate, Anger and Prejudice growing more every day as it disintegrates the heart and soul of our family and friends. 

My sincere condolences to the people and the families that were impacted, wounded or killed in the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt. My heartfelt wishes for a speedy recovery to former President Trump and everyone that was hurt by the alleged immature and insecure person that pulled the trigger. 

My speech on Achieving Unity addresses these issues directly. From the random shootings across America to the attack on our U.S. Capital on January 6, 2021 through today. All acts of violence must end. Violence is initiated by Hate, Anger and Prejudice. We must “End Anger, Hate and Prejudice (EHAP)™” immediately. 

Why do young children get along so well together and then, maybe a few years later, they hold grievances against each other because of someone else’s opinion, rumor or expectation? 

We are all the same. Today, tomorrow, next week, next year and the decades ahead of us. We share the same four blood groups/types – A, B, AB and O.  

I am not a doctor or give medical advice but, because of a critical accident that happened to me right out of high school, I learned about our “Love Circulation™.” The blood that flows through our bodies and into our heart can be shared with others of the same blood type. Those that have O-positive or O-negative can also share with others of different blood types. Our Love Circulation can be shared beyond ourselves. 

Our indifference to another person’s opinion must not create any form of Hate, Arnger or Prejudice. We must use our innate ability to create dialogue, to collaborate and communicate with each other to understand the value of what is being said. We must stop the political tirades and force a clear understanding of our laws. Our laws must be written so those that are expected to obey them can understand them. 

We must choose to increase our value systems as we go from HATE (“Having Accelerated Troubled Expectations™” to HELP (Having Excellent Leadership Plans™).” 

We cannot expedite our worries or concerns about the possible outcome based on our troubled feelings or we will form a frame of mind toward a preemptive hate. Instead, we can work toward having straight-forward plans that provide a value to and for all. If we prepare our leadership plans based on our shared goals, we can achieve so much more together than through hate. 

We must go from Anger (“Actions Not Gaining Effective Results™”) to CALM (“Cancelling Anger Leads Motivation™).” 

Anger, like violence, has no value. It is a learned response, a culture from decades ago, that was used as a fake power. Anger did not create any value but the FEAR (“False Evidence About Reality™”) made people act out of a loss of reason and not because of the motivation that would have been created by cancelling the anger. Positive actions promote long-term value through self-motivation. 

We must turn Prejudice from “Poor Reactions Echoing Jealousy (and) Undermined Delivery (of an) Immature (and) Cruel Ego™“ to “Positive Reactions Echoing Justice (and) Understanding Delivered Inclusion (by) Creating Excellence™.” 

All prejudices are from a negative bias or judgement towards an individual or group based on a preconceived notion and not individual merit. It is a learned response or a culture that was passed on without value. Putting someone else down to make yourself feel better is only another form of immaturity or insecurity. 

We must start “Achieving Unity through the OpportUNITY Realized by the power of Caring, Helping and Including Others™.” The only unity cost is for us to understand that we all have value. Over time, we can share our values so everyone receives the benefits each and every time. 

There is no value in violence. No act of violence promotes harmony or positive progress. It is an act that causes harm to one or more people and does not lead to any meaningful solutions. 

“Achieving Unity through the power of Caring, Helping and Including Others will lead us to Ending Hate, Anger and Prejudice for all™.”
