My Titanic Story.

I am sitting in a small life boat with a dozen other people holding my 6 month old baby boy in -12 degree weather, rocking back and forth and checking every minute to see if he is still breathing. While doing this, I am crying because I have just lost the love of my life. There is an awkward silence on the life boat. Running through my mind is what has just happened because it seemed like it flashed before my eyes. Surrounded by people I have never met, we start talking about how this could of happen. The officer on our life boat tells us a rumor that it was Captain Smith who said to keep the boat at normal speed when there was an ice berg just ahead of our ship, the Titanic. Why would someone do that? Many people have just died and some have survived but are scarred with terror for the rest of their lives. My life has just been turned upside down. My husband has been ripped away from my life within a few minutes. Will my life ever be the same again? What am i going to tell my son when he asks who is my daddy? I do not think i could ever forgive the mistake of that one man, for that one mistake has changed MY life forever.

Should We Have Pity On A German Soldier?

A German soldier asks a Jew for forgiveness for the things he has done to the Jews people. Should you have pity on him or not? That is what the Jewish student, Simon, asked hisself as this very thing was happening to him.In my opinion he does not deserve forgiveness. "Look," said the German soldier," those Jews died quickly, they did not suffer as I do-though they were not as guilty as I am." Even though he put a little sorrow into the end of his statement, his first part of it shows no sign of guiltiness for the Jews that he killed or watched die. When he says this statement, I did not have pity for him. He may be dying but the Jews that he killed did nothing to deserve to die the way they did and with out any pity at all. Therefore, I believe that since his victims had no pity, he should have no pity. "The pain became more and more unbearable. My whole body is covered with marks from pain-killing injections...I was taken from one field hospital to another, but they never sent me home." The soldier looked like a zombie in my opinion: covered with goss, could barely speak, was weak all over his body, and was pumped with pain killers. He was getting what he deserved for killing innocent people just for their religion.
