How has the author
suffered in her life?
She lost half of her assets and separated from her husband
and also lost her daughter. Even though she coped well with this and did not
feel the same about her husband it was still hard for her as a lot changed and
she lost the feeling of belonging once she moved. She was proud to be part of
the country she grew up in and struggled to adapt to a new way of life.
How has she coped
with the pain and suffering?
She had a very philosophical view especially between the
death of her daughter and the birth of her granddaughter. She associated the
place where both her daughter died and her granddaughter was born and felt as
though they were linked as she said that both experiences felt like a
photograph because of the stillness and silence. With the separation she knew
that it was the right thing to do no matter how hard and dealt with it maturely
by simply dividing everything between her and her husband and saying that it
was better for both of them. She had a positive view on the ordeal.
How has she benefited
from the pain and suffering?
Personally, I think she has as she explained that she is not
afraid of death anymore by being with her daughter when she passed away and is
not afraid of life anymore by being in the same place when her granddaughter
was born. She has a more positive view and is really calm towards pain and
suffering and deals with it as it comes.
Is pain and suffering
always a bad thing? Explain.
I don’t think it is to a certain extent. I think
that it’s horrible if someone experiences too much of it but I do think that it
can strengthen people and test their limits and their way of coping. It can
bring people together in some circumstances and it can also shape someone’s
personality or identity. Pain and suffering are simply a part of life because
without them we wouldn’t experience joy and happiness. It’s the choices and the
way you handle the pain and suffering that can really depict whether you want
to feel sorry for yourself or move on because in all honesty I think that
feeling sorry for yourself is a luxury that not everyone has the opportunity to
have.
