Forgiveness, Empathy, Compassion, and Kindness -- these four fundamental human values are the key to unlocking great unity and humanity. In It's Time to Give a FECK, Chaz Ebert takes the reader through a heartfelt journey of how the four FECK Principles have prevailed through the most adverse circumstances and united strangers in the name of love. Read on to discover the stories and science as to how the elevation of our personal humanity is key to keeping humanity as a whole united. None of us has to go it alone. Since her husband's, Roger Ebert's, death on April 4, 2013, it has been Chaz Ebert's fervent desire for things such as forgiveness, empathy, compassion, and kindness -- the FECK Principles -- to spread in such a viral way that they become a natural part of our lives. A next step to the work Chaz and Roger began together, It's Time to Give a FECK is a call for the elevation of unity among humanity and a movement to transform empathy into action by choosing to become a part of the conversation surrounding the philosophical principles that matter for the betterment of our local and global societies. Good can come from the most frightening of circumstances and positive strides in human behavior can be made from even the most horrifying experiences. And transformations made within these times have the potential to be equally, if not even more, powerful if sustained. In It's Time to Give a FECK, Chaz Ebert takes readers on an awakening journey of how the FECK Principles have prevailed through the most adverse circumstances, uniting strangers in the name of love. Where do we go from here?; What can we do to prove to one another that we really are in this together?; What contributions can we each make in the name of forgiveness, empathy, compassion, and kindness? If you care about changing the way things are and bringing more love -- for life itself, for yourself, and for others -- into your life, this book will give you the stories and strategies that move you into action and allow you to 'Give a FECK' in any way, big or small, that fills your heart and the hearts of others.…
