Reflection #4
Evelyn is a story about a young woman who lived with her two brothers and father. Her mother had died of an illness when she was little. When her mother died her father started treating her bad. He was very strict with her and didn’t think that any guy would be good enough for her. As she got older she met a young man and they fell in love. He promised her everything, a home, happiness, love and many other things. She had had a really weird childhood because since she was the only girl and her mother had died she had to do everything in the house and deal with her father. She had the greatest opportunity in leaving this house to make her own life with the man she loved and she wasted it all. She didn’t leave with him because of the promise that she had made to her mother once of not leaving her home and trying to keep it together and she was already so accustom to that life that she got scared of new things or changes. Would you act the same way? In my case I don’t like routine and besides it’s part of life. Someday you’ll get married and start your own life away from your parents. If I had gone through something similar, as Evelyn’s case and my father were sick an alone I would get married and well live near his house so that I could take care of him too. Obviously, this would be things that I would have to talk to my fiancĂ©e first, but I think he would understand. Then everyone would be happy including me. What would you do? Would you leave your loved one?
