This is a motivational speech I plan to deliver with the purpose of encouraging individuals to have basic healthcare knowledge, so they help people to the best of their abilities. Aubrey de Grey said, "There is no difference between saving lives and extending lives, because in both cases we are giving people the chance of more life." Things can sometimes turn out to be exactly the opposite of what you expected, but having the knowledge and ability to save someone's life can make a big difference. Life is important as it provides us with the ability to do amazing things, pursue our dreams, and achieve our goals. In saving a life, we are not saving an individual but are saving humanity as a whole as that person has relations, duties to perform, and play his part for the betterment of society.
