Several times, I have had several testimonies of how selfless and kind I am, even to strangers or people that others feel are undeserving, and this humbles me and also motivates me to be a source of relief to people around me.
Being a medic, I have witnessed many health and disease conditions that could be avoided only if basic amenities or funding were available. The malnourished children could make one cry, as they are victims of society and rely on what their parents or caregivers offer them.
I have gone hungry several times, even though it has not been protracted. Occasionally, the hunger had to disappear when I had to engage in other activities, if available. And there have been times when I would feel the stinging bite of hunger. It was a good, appreciable time. I feel content knowing that there are provisions for a meal, but when I see beggars or little children begging for alms, I wonder if there is any hope for them when the dusk of the day nears.
Life throws at us various chances, but one that often tests our wits is when we have to sacrifice our comforts or desires for another, and maybe for strangers. But, being an optimistic individual with compassion, I would love to have every chance for a change, especially one that affects the world at large.
Just as giving birth is difficult, so is taking life; maybe the latter is more so, especially as regards the modality. If there is an assurance that life generally would be much better and easier at the cost of my life, it would be a heroic sacrifice worth taking. Personally, life is hell enough, and the least I can do is be the answer to prayer, not just for a few but for the world at large.
It’s a definite no. No matter how much we feel that we are willing to sacrifice our lives for any course, it never comes easy, especially when the actual course is to be carried out. A lot of reassuring would be required to convince me that the aftermath of my decision would be satisfactory and not a waste. Whatever means would be sacrificed should equally be such that it is without much pain and quick. It would not make sense to suffer to death while trying to relieve the world of suffering.
Of course, yes! And even if I choose to stay silent as to the sacrifice I made, I am certain word would spread to that effect. Thus, since my submission is for a noble cause, I would love to have a monument in my honor and have my generation bestowed with the privilege of the sacrifice I made.
Thank you for reading. I would love to have your comments and contributions.
