No life is ever equal to that if another, not because one is better than another but because if the quality if that life. This is because of potential and experience. The life of a person who has glided off the highest mountains or swam in the deepest oceans isn't the same as the life of someone that has loved so deeply and intensely that it hurts. This is why people can't be brought back from the dead, there is nothing of sufficient payment. Isn't the fact that life is finite what makes it so valuable, not knowing whether this moment might be your last.
