It all starts when we hear the news that brightens our day.
How dark would our days be without this light?
We wait and wait, in growing anticipation.
Wouldn’t our lives be dull without this excitement?
And then the day comes when their arrival fills us with joy.
Would you want a world with no joy?
As they grow up, our happiness grows with them.
How sad we would be without this ecstasy.
Soon, the day comes when they leave and we can only hope for the best.
A hopeless world is a world with no future.
Alas we lie dying, weakened by pain but full of pride from what they’ve become.
A human with no pride would be a sad sight indeed.
Without these emotions, these memories, these events
There is no life.
So give this person the chance to live
And you’ll give yourself the opportunity to feel truly alive.
There’s nothing else that can give you such things,
So don’t abort this gift of a child.
