reflection
Topic of the day: I will be willing to die for... A thousand dollars? A million? Your pet? Your brother? Fame? Consider carefully…
My brother. We will start by emlinating others options, firstly, a thousand dollars and a million dollars are still money. As we all know, after death, we cannot bring money or fame up or down to heaven or hell. This 1 million dollars consider as a large amount of money, but soon out or later this money will soon be used up. Will this million dollars help my family?..
NO.. it won't.. or maybe financial wise, it might, but me, as the breadwinner of my family, died suddenly and leave with a million for my family of 2 children, my wife and my father and mum, who will be retirees. How will my wife be able to cope and support the living of my family. The utities bill of our flat and how about our children school fees and pocket money if they are still too young to work? All of these are needed to taken to be account of.
Somemore, will my children be as happy as now, living in single-parent family, without the care and corcern of their father, will they still be as obedient as they are now. I have heard about cases that teenagers from single-parent family are more likely to commit crimes or join gangs.
When the parent is busy with her job to earn the living of the family. I don't think she is able to cope with disciplining her children and to cope with her job. This will lead to teenagers seeking for attention by trying out "dangerous acts" to attract their parent attention or to even commit sucide because they can't cope with problems such as relationship or friendship problems and they don't have a chance for them to voice out their problems and to seek for help, this lead to the problems to be continue accumlating or worsens.
How about the medical fees of my parents, will my wife be able to fork out these money to pay, because when age catching up, elders tends to have one or two health problems like diabetes or high blood pressure. If i am not married at that point of time, Will my silbling willing to take care of our parents?
Next is my pet. This totally rideculous, normal lifespan of a dog is less than 15 years. Will my exchange of death to the dog helps? As in, for financial wise, will the dog be able to replace me to earn money or to support my family? No.
I will continue with fame, my fame will attract a lots of attention, if i have died, my fans will be sad and these also bring misery to my family. Media and broadcast will showcases every details of my family they can find. My family will lost all their privacy. Will children living in non-privacy be able to live with happiness? NO, i wanted my children to be happy, i wanted people around me, my relatives, my family and friends to be happy.
Lastly, this bring us back to why i chosen brother, firstly my brother can help take care of my parents and to provide assist to my wife to support my family. I know that what my brother can help is limited, because he has to also support his family if he has. But this assistance will surely help my family to pull through current difficulties and my children can also recognise my brother as godfather. This will provide a path for my children to seek for help if they need, which will prevent tradegy to happens, such as commit suicides, which from my point of view, commiting suicides will not solves any problems. They are just trying to escape and are afraid to face their problems and difficulties. So, commit suicides is the last resort and also the sillyest resort to have.
I always wanted to spread happiness and joy to all my people around me out there. Life is short and we must really live our lives with no regrets and to the fullness. That is my motto and i will continue uphold it to the highest.
