Would I consider a thing like that?

in Hive Learners19 days ago

This is a very hard decision to make; thinking about it alone has brought some aches to my head: "So I'm gonna stop" and just share my thoughts about it, or should I say, "share my own story." We all know the kind of people that would sacrifice their lives for their world; imagine saving a world you won't live in "and where would I be?" back to the people who will die or go through any form of suffering to save their world "well, they are superheroes". Am I a hero hehe!! My kind of hero super can't even be added to it because I ain't no hero in the first place.

All these stories about heroes saving the world only happen in movies, but come to think of it, "is it even realistic" with the world today? Now, the thing is not about saving the world; the question is, "Is the world ready to be saved?" You can't save someone who isn't ready to be saved like the parable that people normally say "You can force a horse to the stream but you can't force him to drink from the stream" If the world has shown that it's ready to be saved then we can all look for volunteers who are tired of the life they're living and is ready to give it for sacrifice, then we can go ahead in sacrificing their lives to save the world, so the pain and suffering we experience will all go away in peace.

Honestly, I haven't thought about a thing like this, we all know what heroes do "They save the world" without putting anything into consideration, now that I'm thinking about it logically, all these things are roaming in my head right now, currently, I'm looking at myself and the few around me and the questions that keep coming to my head are "would I be willing to save everyone" and mind you, everyone includes people who have hurt me and my family before or even severally, even those who have made life hard for me in one way or the other, and those causing pain and suffering on us "that's a hard decision to make".

Would I sacrifice the few to save the millions? The few include those around me, like my family or loved ones, now that's not the problem, but you know what the problem is. Who is gonna remember my family when we are gone from the face of the earth? "Who?" The world forgets heroes easily. I won't sacrifice myself and the few around me to save the world.

It's not about the world right now; it's all about saving the people in the world, both the good and bad; it's likely that after the sacrifice is made, the pain and suffering might continue, and at that point, my sacrifice would be in vain.

In conclusion: I'm not gonna give up myself and the few people around me as a living sacrifice to save the world, someone paid that price decades ago and the world has not gotten any better, there is still pain and suffering on the face of the earth, so I don't think my sacrifice is gonna be any different "it might even be worse" who knows.

Thanks for reading

I don't know what I would do.
I think it's easier to say these kinds of things than to actually do them when in the face of such. I might weigh the options based on certain considerations.

However, I think it shouldn't be in my power to determine who lives and who dies. Everyone should just stay alive and hustle as they have been.

Yeah! I agree with you on this. Staying alive is our number one option.

Picking it from your first point...
This world, ready to be saved?
As it is now, even if Jesus come to the earth to die again, people would boldly tell him to hide because his death is not going to poke their lifestyle to change. That's how the world is and sacrificing oneself for others to live is more like a waste of time and life.
I can't sacrifice my life for others, but I can kill to save😅

🤣🤣🤣🤣 imagine telling Jesus to hide, ahhh well the world might do that, who knows.

There are people in this world who compromise their lives to provide a good life to their family and those are the people who are living a good and true life because if we want to live a good life then we need to support the family. It has to be done and life can never be good without family.

Yeah.. family is everything but then we should also prioritize ourselves.
