Quick Write: Cranes


Q: Which is worse: betraying a duty or betraying a friend? Imagine a situation where you are forced to choose one. What issues would you weigh as you tried to make a decision?
A: To my personal opinion, I think that betraying a friend is much worse than a duty. Of course, the person giving you the duty must understand your feelings. If you disobey a duty, you might as well get a mild punishment or go to jail; but is that really as bad as receiving a friend’s death? If I were in that situation, without hesitation, I would say no to the duty and betray my duty. Though it may be not honorable, God will know that it is the right thing to save every life possible rather than show honor to my country. If people honestly think about it, a duty is just what a person from a bigger prestige is telling you to do. The true fact is that we are all human and he does not have the rights of controlling everything you do.
