What is the value of life? This is a most unusual topic, who does not want to realize the maximum value of their life? What is value? The universal concept is that it is useful, and the more useful something is, the more valuable it is. What is useful? Of what value? Of value to whom? The value of life is not for oneself, how one exists does not come down to a value, the value of one's life is for the outside world. An apple is not measured as a value for oneself, but for people, it has a practical value. A landscape has an ornamental value, a flower has an aesthetic value, and a tool has a use value, so, under such logic, what is the value of life? It depends on what is the use of life. To whom is it useful?

Everyone's life is not valued by survival, but by one's survival, without the support of value, how to live well and long is the purpose. But for all things outside oneself, people have value distinction. So, what is the value of human existence? First of all, people have supreme value to others, not that they can act in a way that benefits others, or benefit others. Your existence is a comprehensive reference for others, and all the information of your existence constitutes the spiritual concept and mental object of others' existence, while all your perceptions and behaviors become a common perception of existence by agreement with others, and without this agreement, man cannot determine the existence of things. Zhuang Zhou would not be able to determine whether he dreamed of the butterfly or whether he was the dream of the butterfly. Once agreed upon by more than two people, things are certain of existence. That is, there is a point B for the existence of point A. If there is only one point, this point cannot exist and there is no distance.

This means that without genetic consideration, the absolute one cannot exist in the world at all; one does not have any degree of existence. The absolute existence of a person would lose all meaning, and the absolute existence of a person cannot be expressed as existence. Therefore, this logic proves that people are based on the existence of others, that the existence of others is the basis of existence, that the existence of others has meaning, that the existence of others creates purpose, that the existence of others creates degrees of existence, and that the existence of others exists with certainty. How great is the value of human existence to others? As great as the value of the existence of the whole world. This is only the value of human existence. How much value does a person's life, and e actions of a person's life have to others? Can it be measured? However, have we ever measured the value of a human being in this way? We are only accounting for how much wealth value a person has created, or how much wealth value has been consumed, and we measure whether a person has value by saying whether he has contributed to the behavior of others in society, and we measure the value of a person only by wealth creation or intellectual ability, how one-sided and low is this measurement?

The value of life is for others and society, is this how we discover and use the value of people? ObNotWe sees the value of life as our own first and foremost, as having value to ourselves, just as an apple has value to itself, yet what value does an apple have to itself? What value does a person have for himself or herself? We never consider that we have value for others, let alone how to realize our value for others. The most we consider is to give others the benefit of wealth or care. Is this giving behavior the realization of our owls? For thousands of years, mankind has never established the basic concept of self-worth, but only the public concept of human value, that is, the social value of man, and the real absolute value of man himself has never been discovered, let alone the discovery, establishment, discovery, development, and realization of his value.

The value of others, which is the most necessary for human beings, has been neglected, which is not the same thing as the value of human beings that we have been emphasizing. It is not the production value, reproduction value, wisdom value, and creating value of human beings, but the absolute value of human beings, that is, the absolute value of human beings to others, has been neglected, so much so that people generally have a misunderstanding that people have no value without social value. How big a misunderstanding is it that people lose the value of their existence when they are sick, old, or crippled? What is the real value of human beings? How sad is it that we still don't know?

We also need to know that the most basic value of life is not for others, but existence. The greatest value of human life is to give properties to things that exist. Would the world exist so colorfully if we did not give things the perceptual properties of color, form, sound, smell, and knowledge? Would existence exist so much? Each of us contributes to the agreed identification of the perceptual properties of existence, and this agreement is the cognitive base, that is, the maximum number of people, the higher the degree of existence of things, and each of us is consciously and unconsciously contributing to the degree of existence of things, and this is the greatest and most basic indispensable value of the existence of human beings. Logically, every time there is one less person, the degree of existence of the thing is reduced by one point, until it is reduced to the last person or no one at all, the degree of existence is lost, and existence ceases to exist.

What is the value of a person's life? Is it not a great pity that we do not know this value, let alone use it and discover it when the value of human life is equal to the value of the world's existence?
