FROM CHAZ
A Fervent Desire to Elevate Unity
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.
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.
Good can come from even the most frightening of circumstances, and positive strides in human behavior can be made from even the most horrifying experiences. If you care about changing the way things are and bringing more love— for yourself, for others, and for life itself —into your life, this book is your key. Welcome to an awakening journey into a rediscovery of how we truly are all in this together.
Uncover how Forgiveness, Empathy, Compassion, and Kindness—the FECK Principles— have prevailed through the most adverse circumstances, uniting strangers in the name of love, as you read the stories and strategies that will move you into action.
