Where do you feel you belong?

This is a complicated question. I do not know for sure, like Hyder, I can identify with multiple cultures. I do not know which one I might fit in more. In America, I have lived here all my life, but I don’t know. No matter what, I have always felt like an outsider. I have had and still have really good friends, but I still have this sensation. I am proud to be an American, and I would do anything for it, but for some reason on “small scale” I feel like I am apart. To be honest I have no idea as to why this would be. Then there is Bolivia. I loved the trip to Bolivia, and I did feel for the most part a sense of belonging. Like Hyder I had family members that remembered me and where very kind and open. I found it much more easy to assimilate with everyone else. One thing that was hard was the language. I am not fluent in Spanish, I am enough to understand the general jest of the conversations, but I had trouble with the speaking. So in this way I felt like an outsider too, a bit closer, but outside all the same. The last place that I feel i am connected to is Poland, which is where my mom's side is from. I do not have family there, nor have I been there, but I still would like to visit, but knowing virtually no Polish, I would not get far without help. In the end I have no idea where I should belong, but I still have my pride for America, and my cultural heritages.

Question on Euthanasia

N- painless killing to keep them from suffering, that is the meaning of euthanasia. Overall i have to disagree with this, though there are some things that are exception. One of those exceptions would have to be the terminal state, because the person is hardly alive, and being stuck to a machine unable to do anything is worse than death in my opinion. How ever for those that are more fortunate but still have a bad disease such as really bad cancer, people should not look at death as an easy way out. They should rather enjoy life and what time we have left in the world. Should something happen, i think people should hang on, as sometimes things happen that are not expected, and can make living, if how ever brief, meaningful. If you think about, all death is certain, that might sound morbid, but if you think about it, it is unbinding. to tell yourself i might only have x amount of time, you realize the importance of just one day, you see every thing as special, whether it is just how the sun reflects of a glass, or how the view looks like from an airplane. you are also willing to try to do different things when the chance comes, from crazy food to skydiving. So if you do have something that makes life short, you hit the ground running, you don't stop.
