generation is a really brutal story for me. yes there are cases in which some people tend to kill their own family when they've been totally hurt or something. but a kid? killing his own father? woah! i don't know what the author wanted to say in the story,maybe it is better if we had invited her to talk.. or to explain? haha!
i like reading thriller stories, suspense, or something that has criminal cases or something to solve, but i have never read stories like this until i've read it. hmn.. yeah maybe it was just because of the environment she grew up to. (i mean the character in the story) but still i believe, that whether we grew up in such way, we would still learn what the law is saying about killing. even if we have heard it or not, even if we are aware of it or not, we would still learn what is good or bad. learning it is very simple, i guess.
haay.. maybe the reason why im having a hard time accepting the story, or relating myself to the story is that my life is far different from the life of the little girl in the story. i have a cool family, haha! because we are like friends, tropa. and i'm thankful for that, even if sometimes we're having misunderstandings and all. everyone have experienced it i guess.
now, upon doing this blog, i felt bad for that little girl, and for all others who are experiencing the same thing with that little girl. i know,in one way or another, somehow, somewhere, such thing still happens. and all we can do is to pray for them. prayer is the most powerful thing in the world..
and i thank God for blessing me and my family.

You know what, I'm actually in the same soes as you are right now. I can't seem to relate myself with the text so I had a hard time coping up with the story. However, the text has been an eye-opener for the readers because it exposed us to a reality we never did realized was existing. Or maybe we just took it for granted not to notice.
let's just say that we're still lucky to live with our family under one roof... :)
this story made my eyes wide open... really.. esp. when miss dianne told us about the children selling their own body just to have drugs for their parents.... well..all we can do is accept the work and the past situation... bcoz it really happens not only in the past.,but also today....
Life is full of weird and unexplainable experiences. Just like the story explains, brutality is something here in the country that stays but that doesn't mean we cannot purge it!!
most of us wont be able to relate in this story. its very harsh. we shuld be thankful that we grew up in a family that took care of us. we should just be really thankful and contented with what we have. aii?!
