wuthering heights: my comments on others

hey Rhina!, 
I totally agree about your opinion on revenge. No matter how much someone hurts or insults you, revenge will do nothing but make you feels worse. sure, if someone deeply hurts you, you'll be very compelled to get them back for it, to make them feel your pain. but if you seek revenge to make that other person understand your pain, then it is completely pointless. if that person didn't care to try to understand the repercussions of his/her actions in the first place, then they're probably not going regret it even if they also feel your pain. i can't think of anytime were i got revenge for petty things, and i actually felt good afterwards. i just think if someone gets satisfaction out of watching others in pain, then they should really go see psychiatrist cause there is something very wrong with them



Alexa,

i agree with everything you said. i mean, there are people out there who consider their cats and dogs as a "real" family member! so of course an actual human foster/adopted child is part of the family. a family is a group of people who take care of each other. sure, being biologically related plays a part too, but i don't see any reason why an adopted child can never truly be part of a family. afterall, why would someone want to take in a child into their family if they aren't going to considered a part of the family?

 

hey angel

i believe in everything you said about people "living on" in our memories. when people die, the only proof there is that they existed are people's memories of them. actually, there has always been a question on my mind about this; if someone dies and no one on earth has any recollection of them whatsoever, then were they truly alive in the first place? it really confuses me if i try to think about it though. anyways, i agree with you about people"living on through love given from others". i love the worded that sentence and the sentence following it. you really bring life to those presidents.

also about childhood friends; i think for someone to become a loyal friend, you have to have complete trust in them. i think childhood friends might not be the loyalist of all friends because with the friends you made when you were young, there really wasn't a reason or need to trust friends at that young age. you just wanted to have fun with them. their loyalty was the least of you concerns! but occasionally there are a couple of friends who stick, and those are the ones you can trust, because they stuck with you even as you grew up and changed.
