Should euthanasia be legalized ?

In the circle of life, everybody must follow four steps: be born, elderly, be sick and die. As people know, they cannot parry the death. However, in some circumstances, they are the decision people, who will choose between the death and life; it is based on their expectations. In Oxford dictionary, euthanasia means the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. In my opinion, I absolutely agree that euthanasia should be legalized which releases the physical and soul pain for the patients and their families.

Physical pain and the way euthanasia help the patients are linked to each other clearly which the opposers cannot deny. How do the patients feel when they have been suffering the pain? Painful, tired, exhausted, disappointed and discouraged- these are the feeling of the patients who live with the incurable and painful diseases day by day. To them, life is not colorful and dynamic as surrounding people feel and live. Their life would be grey and tasteless if their illness cannot be cured. The days they live are being counted down day by day and they can do nothing. They live with an incurable disease and suffer painful everyday for what? It looks like a nightmare which is never end. In this position, they only have 2 choices: one is suffering painful and weary day by day, at the end they die or euthanasia can make them die quickly and easily which release them from daily physical pain.

  In some situations, the euthanasia is only way which can rescue the patients and their family members from the soul pain and overpressure of long time cure. It is said that when patients suffers the physical pain, their family members would suffer the soul pain 10 times than that. If you are their family member, how would you feel when looking them suffering painful hour by hour, day by day? People can stand with that situation in short term but how about long term; 5 years, 10 years…To them, time flows slowly with the repetitive nightmare never ends. Moreover, to the rich families, the money is nothing. They can spend several millions every month without any worries. On the other hand, to the family middle class, the money is really a burden. Their family members must overwork more than 72 hours per week to get enough money for the long time cure. Moreover, the ability of hospital fee payments to the poor families is impossible. To them, they do not have enough money to buy food so how can they have money to pay hospital fees.

Looking the family members who are suffering painful day by day is not an easy action. Moreover, the feeling of looking their relative die is worse than that a thousand times. However, life is not easy than people thought. It leads them to the situation where the patients or their families are the decision people who choose between live or death. Some people can think that euthanasia is a action which against the human right, but have they ever thought that let someone suffering painful day by day from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma is the right choice of human right? The family members will never ever know how the patients feel if they are not in those circumstances. There are only two things in the world people would never ever know; which are how someone feels and what they think about. If the patients decide to die, the family members should agree with it. That action shows how they respect someone. Needless to say, I agree with this statement; euthanasia should be legalized.

What are the possible causes of conflict?

      In life, sometimes, people have to face unexpected conflicts and overcome them even if they are not prepared. The effects of conflict sometimes impact negatively to different side of human life. The Lybia is a good example about conflict at this moment; the serious conflict between government and anti-government faction has led this country to the civil war, as a result the number wounded and killed increase day by day. However, have people ever asked themselves that how conflicts happen, how they affect people’s live and how they can be managed? In the Cambridge dictionary, misunderstandings, disagreement and fighting over something with perceived value - are defined as the some of the main reasons which lead the conflict happen unpredictably in human life.

      Sometimes, conflict arises because of disagreement over fact or opinion between people. Base on their families, backgrounds and the surrounding environment, personal orientation systems of every people are different; including needs, interests…As a result, they lead people to the disagreement; which should be seen as nature and positive. This is because, the disagreement could help them to develop or share the opinions or ideas during discussion or speeches. In human communication, how strongly a person thinks or feels about something that relate to the other one’s tolerance. When the tolerance is no longer, they usually face to the disagreement during discussions. By the time, the disagreement develops step-by-step; when it reaches the peak, the conflict appears and exchanges the role with disagreement. In almost situations, conflict could be seen as negative with unhealthy competitions.

      Misunderstanding should be thought is a background reason which makes the conflict happen. This is because the communication has 2 parts: the sender and the receiver. When the sender tells the receiver about a message, he/she would transmit the information by the speeches, his/her actions, emotions…which the sender thinks that is the best way to reflect what he/she are thinking. However, the surrounding environment, many things or many reasons can impact or prevent the sender’s reflection  that make the receiver get not enough or intended information clearly. These reasons make conflict arise as the sender’s mistake. In addition, the background about culture, lifestyle, and character of the receiver could be defined as the factors that determine how the receiver interprets the information. In this situation, the mistake comes from the receiver.

      Fighting over something with perceived value is the most dangerous reason which arise conflict. From past to present, human’s desire could be thought as endless which lead people to usually conflict. The black gold (oil) could be seen as a good example. In the 21^st century, the black gold plays a most important role in world economy. As a result, a lot of countries fight over oil with perceived value and the conflict will definitely happen as a corollary.

      In conclusion, there are more than three possible reasons which make conflict happen. However, these reasons are told above could be defined as the most common reasons. Conflict could happen in different ways and different circumstances but depending on the reasons of conflict, people could deal with them or find solutions. Sometimes, people could think that conflict is a part of human life which makes their life more interesting.

      

What does the term ‘needs’ mean to the average person today, and how does it differ from one person to another?

             Have you ever evaluated the term ‘needs’ mean to the average person to day?  Is it important or just neutral? Many people are confused about the difference between needs and wants. In Cambridge dictionary, the needs are defined as the state of having to have something that you do not have, especially something that you must have so that you can have a satisfactory life. For that reason, the needs lead people to a comfortable life or give them the motivation to reach their goals.  To everybody, daily necessity plays an important role in the human’s need; such as clothes, foods, drinks…  However, depending on different situations or circumstances such as peace and adversities; the needs people direct toward are not as same as each other.

            During peaceful time, the term ‘needs’ means to the average person today is the essential things to help them to survive such as food, water, clothes, money to survive without those they may die or at the very least suffer needlessly. However, have you asked yourself that would you have a satisfactory life if the foods, water, clothes and money are only the things you need? As a result, in peace, people also need the electricity for using, house for staying; articles of daily necessity such as detergent, shampoo…Those things can be defined as the daily necessaries or a part of human life. In sum up, in the peaceful time, the level of the human’s needs is highest; people need more things than they thought and also cannot deny the importance of them in peace.

            When people go through the adversities, their view of needs would change by circumstances. As a result, people need fewer things than the peaceful time and the level of needs is lower. During war time, people must suffer the losses, the scare; the enemies…Those reasons lead every person to think the different way about their needs. To soldiers, who bring the heavy responsibilities to protect and fight for their country; so the most important thing they need is weapons; food and drink are just lower important than them. Why? This is because they would die easily if they do not have the weapons during the battles. How can they protect themselves without any guns in their hands? ... On the other hand, about the citizens, who do not have ability to oppose. If you are in their situations, what you would need? Maybe food, water and the safety places are those which help them survive during war.

            We also can see how the people’s view of needs after natural disaster. With the devastation of Tsunami, Earthquake, hurricane etc, they destroy everything. For that reasons, people have to suffer the losses, the injuries, the misery … At this time, Japan is a good example let us know what the victims really need after natural disaster by the international aids. Medicines, foods, drinks, blankets… and the reception stations are the necessaries coming to them. The ability of the aid is limited, that lead the level of the human’s needs is low. For that reason, the victim cannot require as much as they need.

            It is concluded, the term ‘needs’ mean to the average person today is something people must have so that they can have a satisfactory life. Those things include foods, drinks, clothes, money…However, the needs of every person are not fixed; they are depended on different situation or circumstances. On the other hand, there are only two things we need in any situations. Foods and drinks are two most important things to help people survive anywhere.

How does our view of success influence the path we choose in our live?

In life, the success presents itself in the different aspects of the live. Generally, success is defined as the ability to achieve goals, what people want in their lives and how they try to get it. Moreover, our view of success differs from one person to another. Moreover, our views of success are influenced by different reasons in the life such as influence from their families, having different views because of generation differences or age differences and the gender.

Different ages or generation has different standpoints about success.  In the modern life, the dissension between young people and the old people is shown clearly.  The reasons are lifestyle and sight of the life. For some elderly, who were affected by the old lifestyle; their old fashioned viewpoint maybe have enough food to eat , enough water to drink …, so that is a successful life to them. On the other hand, in modern life, almost young people have a prosperous life, so their goal would concentrate on power, money, fashion…Besides that, the people view of success maybe changes by the time. For example, when they are young, their goal would be rich, powerful, relationship, traveling around the world… However, when their live reach middle age, their points of view about success are mostly about the happy families, children. These let us know that people view of success is not fixed.

Families play an important role to orient their children’s sight of success. Children, who look like the plain paper, easy get information from their parents undoubtedly. For that reason, the parents can drive their children to the way they think it would be most successful. For example, if the parents think the success is money, they will lead their children’s mind to money. By the time, when the children grow up, their view of success would be obviously money. Undoubtedly, their live would involve the business or the well-paid jobs which make them well off.

            Male or female often has unlike decision about their way to success. This is because of the lifestyle or maybe their culture. A lot of women do not want to compete too much with their husbands about the career. For that reason, they become the housewives. To them, meaningful success is taking care of their families and looking their children to grow up. On the other hand, lots of men always have the dreams about a well to do life or power. As a result, their views tend to exert their business stability than getting married or having families.

            In conclusion, the success can be anything, depending on what we think or what we live for. They can be money, power…or maybe just the rest or the family. For that reason, to some people, family is just a normal thing in their live, but it can be a success to the other ones. It means that every people’s views about success are unlike, that bring to them about different choice in their future. 

Doing Several Things at The Same Time

  

         Generally, almost people plan to do something gradually during the day. They set the time table clearly for individual thing in the specific time and follow it. On the other hand, some people, they just make a general plan and doing several things in the same time. I am a one of them.   

We know that both ways also have advantage and disadvantage. Personally, I enjoy doing several things in the same time. This is because, I do not have to put myself in the fix plan, the way to work is more flexible, not be bored during working time and save more time for the other things.

          First, why do I not to put myself in the fix plan? The reason is if I am doing something and suddenly the other thing happens, I would be more flexible to respond to unpredictable situations.

          Secondly, I would not feel bored in a long time. For example, if I only concentrate on writing the essay in an hour, I would feel bored, sleepy and tired. However, if I alternate between writing essay and writing my thinking on Facebook, it would be more interesting than only do one thing in at a time.

          Third of all, some situation, I could save more time by using this method. For example, reading news on the internet, doing homework and calculating money daily were being worked by me at the same time. Some people said that it is hard to concentrate on doing or maybe they would be confused when doing several things in the same time. It is true but if they practice enough, they would not be confuse any more.

           Everybody has different way to do something. I do not confirm that my method is good enough to somebody. However, this method has helped me to do well a lot of things in my life.

Attitude Toward Writing

In the thousand years, writing has played an important role in human communication. There is the variety of ways to write over the world by emails, letters, novels, etc. Although they are just the small words, they have the ability to connect people to each other wherever they are. Personally, I enjoy writing to the different way in my life.

Sometimes, writing or sharing about my feeling or my thinking on the Facebook makes me calm down in some circumstance. They are just a few sentences or a small paragraph but they are really meaningful to me. Besides that, I also keep in touch with my friends by emails. In the past, I wrote the diary everyday. It made me know what the bad things or happy things had happened to me in that day. By the time, the writing diary became had been

I dislike writing the essays or the novels because of my ability expressing the ideas. However I enjoy writing by reading them. I like reading the books talking about success, the way people think and the way they live. That are absolutely great to me.
