Why?

I am writing about the blog post on Vicky Bell’s Blog. This blog post stirred up many emotions for me. The fact that kids would be mean enough to do something of this standard and the fact that the guy was selfish enough to take his own life. I also came aware that everything I do is important.

                I believe that suicide is a self-centered move that makes the person look like he/she doesn’t care about his/her family enough to go through hard times.  He left everyone that he supposedly cared about alone and heartbroken. This might have been the easiest option but it was not the correct option. But this situation makes me question how much I should just blame the person killing himself. The people who posted that horrible video are just as much at fault as the person who killed himself. What would make someone do something that stupid? With all the sources of entertainment out in the world today why would you have to go make that type of entertainment? This was a stupid move by the boy and girl who did this, and know they have caused a death and are facing charges. Their whole lives are ruined because of one stupid night. Living with someone’s death is hard to handle and can destroy this boy and girl’s life. I personally don’t think that I could live with someone’s death over my head. The fact that I had caused someone else so much sorrow would make me so sad for the rest of my life. This made me realize that every action counts. Especially in this day in age, with the ability for something you write or do on the internet and the fact that it will stay there forever makes even the smallest things big deals. Even if things are not as serious as making someone killing them self it might prevent you from getting a job in the future. Another thing this blog made me feel was joy that some mom would care enough to send this letter to their son/daughter. When I go to college I know that I would love to have my mom or dad send me a letter like this. Telling me that they are still thinking of me and they care about me.
