Essentiality Or Expendability

By the standards of the world and according to the powers that be, you and I                                                                                Are most assuredly expendable; but our gifts to the world may or may not be.                                                            But may we never see ourselves as non-essential regardless of what we've Been told, because every mortal and every other creature in the world is essential.

Essentiality should always refer to the product and not to the person.                                                                                                          "Essentiality or Expendability?  That is the question of the season", I say.                                                                                                   "But who's asking such question", you reply; "That is a good question", I say.                                                                           May it suffice to say, "Satan asked the first question*, but God gives final Answers".

Sociological understandings are indispensable, especially in critical times,                                                                       And a God-consciousness and a Biblical world view are the keys to life,                                                                                   Without which we have no defense against a world stacked against us.                                                                               And of course, life ceases to exist without certain conditions and services.

All humans and living organisms are given food, water, and oxygen.                                                                                        Talents are given to be utilized, not buried, ignored, or misused.                                                                                              God-given significance must never be at war with essentiality.

Isolation must be our enemy and avoided like the plague.                                                                                              All for one; one for all; God for one and all; let's stay connected.                                                                         Let's stay alive and thrive; Let's laugh and love; Let's give with gusto.
