Strength or Cruelty?
Which is it Eva?
When you carry out a preventative surgery and amputate a foot before gangrene spreads right through it…
No not close enough…
When you knowingly cause someone you like immense pain – which at the time could be unnecessary – in an attempt to spare them more pain later and prevent a good deal of confusion that could come along… when you do that… would that make you strong; for being able to carry out such a hard job, or cruel; for you are aware of the amount of pain you’re causing yet you do it without flinching?
What does it make out of you Eva?
I’m thinking if it’s plain cruelty my conscience wouldn’t beat me over it like that, I wouldn’t care less. But then again, if it’s strength, if I know in my heart that it’s the right thing to do, then why would I feel guilty at all?
Sometimes I scare myself!
Sometimes my ability to take certain actions, no matter how justifiable they could be, freaks me out.
Wisdom or insensitivity Eva?

It’s a matter of prespective,..u and the other side!
The question is…
Why would one take the wise role taking the harsh decision and not give the other side the privelege of choice, in case it’s the other side’s own business?!
If it’s not ur life, why would u take the decision?
I’m just wondering !

Cause it’s not just their business, it’s strongly related to me, in fact I’m deeply involved, either way I’m dragged into it… it’s only a matter of time before I have to take certain actions (whichever those could be) it’s just that the inevitable pain would not exactly fall upon me!
of course there’s always the possibility that I’m too arrogant that I just can’t see how I need not do anything at all, I am not God and I can’t pretend to be responsible for everything around me and start taking care of things for other people… but naaah… this does concern me, if I didn’t do anything, anything at all, it’d just make things worse!
lol, I hate talking riddles, I’m sorry!
