while reading thirteen reasons why, i start to think what if i were on the list? what if i could of stopped the suicide, what if i saw the signs? when i think about those questions i literally get the chills. could you imagine going to school sitting in class and staring at an empty desk knowing what they did to themselves and that they weren't coming back? its sick. i can't imagine being in that situation. Especially if i got the tapes. Sitting there listening to someone telling me why they killed them selves, and why i was apart of it. After reading the part when Hannah told the listener about the "warning signs" of suicide, i seriously walk around campus observing a few people i see everyday, looking at their appearances and their attitudes and see if they fall under the warning signs. its like i come paranoid and feel like I'm apart of the book. to be honest, i kind of like it and i definitely enjoy the book a lot.
I thought that, too, especially because some of the people did things that were not so shocking if considered individually. But when taken all together, you could definitely see the snowball effect. I thought (think) about all of the careless things I do and say...I wonder how I am affecting people.
ReplyDeletethats a good point.. i never thought about that till now..
ReplyDeletei should probably consider that when i talk to other people.
