thankful to be alive?
should we really be thankful to be alive?
what if you’re kidnapped and your family is massacred in front of your eyes. you are permanently limbless, tongue has been cut off, and you are stripped naked. you cannot move on your own let alone sit up. you’re used – a play thing for someone else. you’re not even fed well. then after a week or two of being used and sexually abused, you’re thrown out and discarded on the side of the road when it’s raining. you are nameless, alive, breathing, seeing, and can only let out agonizing groans.
how much agony, hatred, helplessness you will feel. just because you want to die doesn’t mean you will die. you’re alive, trapped in that state. i would fucking hate everything and everyone.
then, should i be thankful to be alive?
