GIFT OF LIFE - Donate Blood

What is precious and what is priceless? In this fast moving world, it seems not easy to be answered. Decades ago, people may say life is priceless but no more. Developed countries showed capabilities to clone the animals, and maybe they are able to clone the human too. So with the right price, maybe life can be created. In certain war torn countries, people can kill each other, so certain people can disappear from this world, if with the right price.

So if life is not priceless, then what is priceless? It’s love. A mother can love her children without a condition. With love, people can defend their countries without a condition. With love, social workers will take care of the underprivileged without a condition. It’s love that conquer the world, so love is priceless.

With love, people are willing to give, the society has become more caring and more lively. People donate monies, goods, precious time, organ, blood etc. Among these, the blood is the gift of life that are given, can be re-generated and not affecting the health of donors. It takes 24hrs for your body to replace your blood volume or plasma.

It can save a life, without taken away your life. So what are you waiting, just give blood to save life.
