“Help other people to live, before they leave.”

by Innocent Mwatsikesimbe — from This Is My Life, chapter 12

In other words

Every person begins with the same basic claim to life. Yet unfairness, abuse, and the power of others can decide whether someone truly gets to live or merely continues to exist. Helping people live means protecting more than breath. It includes dignity, freedom, safety, and a fair chance to use the life they were given. Human beings cannot remove death, but they can refuse to steal life from one another before death comes.

The time for that care is limited. People leave, often before fairness has reached them. What matters is whether the world around them helped make living possible while they were still here.
