euthanasia 1

        There is a thin line between live and
death. The normal tendency of any human being, at least in our
culture, is to preserve its life. Nobody can imagine how people can
take the decision to put an end to its live. The most valuable thing
that any person has is its life. Any individual grows up and work in
order to have a better quality of life. When that environment fall
apart, there should be problems in the air. Situations like an
terminal and incurable illness, can be the precursors that leads any
human being to the resolution of taking the “easy” an
painless way.

        Etymologically euthanasia means good
death. Maybe those people do not think to take in their hands their
destiny. Nowadays that meaning turned into something different.
Euthanasia means to end someone life that is suffering and having a
miserable life. Also it is called a homicide for compassion. How can
we say that a homicide can be done with good intensions and it can be
an act of love and empathy?

        When adversity is in your life, in
that specific instant you can prove to yourself and to the rest of
the world of what are you made of. I know that it is easy to say,
that you should accept and take with humility the life that God have
for you. It would very hard and sad to know that you will be confined
to a terminal illness that will consume your essence and soul. As
human beings we tent to be afraid to the new experiences, no matter
if they seemed to be for good. When we lost the command of our life
we can felt misplaced as Sue did. It is hard to found the good side
of our problem or situation.

        Most terminal ill persons are left
alone with their suffering. It is important to hold the support of
the family and friends. At least, a terminally ill person can fight
against everything, if it has something that brings hope and
significance to his or her life. Those motivations can help a patient
in a positive way over a patient that does not.

        As mentioned earlier our faith is the
stronger argument when a person decides to put end to his/her life.
God provides to us the confidence that things would be better, no
matter if is in this or in the other life. Maybe we can think that
our future is out of our control. In a situation like that, we can
hope that everything has a purpose and if He gives to us any
assignment we should take it and make it the better possible.

         As we can see the euthanasia can be
seen with different perspectives, you as a patient or you as the
responsible of another life. It is important to evaluate our life and
convictions. A person life after all is the most valuable thing that
we have. We should take care of our mind and body in a responsible
way. Love your life even when you can find anything good to it. Do
not let the bad moments decides your future in this world. Anything
has a solution as well as your life. Fight for you and for one that
you love.
