if we didn't have mirrors...
would we still have an identity?
if we couldn't see our own reflection, our face, our appearance...
would we still know who we are?
in a world without mirrors... who would we be?

in english we were talking about what would you do if you came across this button on the internet that when you click it you will immediately get $1 million dollars transferred to your bank account, BUT for the price that one person on the other side of the world, who you don't know, and have never seen in your life, will die.
and the majority of the class said, people, if given the chance, will click it without a second thought.
but i thought that people deep down are naturally good hearted and wouldn't have the heart to do it.
and then... i thought about what i would do. if that button happened to pop up on my screen at this moment telling me the consequence. telling me that if i click it i will kill somebody indirectly. somebody who i won't know even existed. so it's like i didn't kill anyone at all. and got free money.
given the circumstances, i think i would do it. i would click it and i wouldnt feel guilty. because i wouldnt know that person. so i cannot relate. it's just like clicking the button and getting money. easy. simple.
im sure you don't give a second thought to the people you see mentioned dying on the news.
but i won't click it because i don't want $1 million dollars to pop out of nowhere for me. i don't want things to be this easy. simple. i want to earn it. not click and poof there you go.

| nothing feels more helpless and sad than being the owner of a sick goldfish...
every morning i wake up to check up on it, see if it survived the night because it's starting to sleep on its side and cannot swim normal, and lately it's gone upside down, (like belly up) and no matter how hard it tries to swim upright, it just can't.
so every day i come home from school i assume it's dead already, but so far, it ends up surprising me, still flapping it's fins on the ground.
he's a fighter.
i don't know which one of us is in pain more, me watching it slowly die, or him, slowly suffering.
and i hope i did not drive him to this. i know i didn't clean the tank for a while but hey all the other fishes are fine!
i don't know what to do.
