Tempted by Keona - August 2013 Scholarship Essay

I felt so uncomfortable about the whole topic; Death. Why do we need to know the process? I didn't sign up for that class to be tramatized. My stomach turned and flinched the whole class period. I was tempted to walk out. Would I be wrong? I don't even know, but the whole lesson killed my vibe.  It was a great topic actually. I learned every thing I needed to know to be a senior care provider even though that was ten times the decade I really wanted to work for. I will never look at a old sick person again only because I know what stage of death they were in. After class was lunch. I just wasn't the same. I wasn't happy, I couldn't eat, I didn't really speak that much that day either. My friends wondered why did I seem so down. I didn't want to seem like a little cry baby so I simply told them that I was okay. I love learning and all but I think that death lesson kind of made me scared to learn anything again. Learning is suppose to put me in a good mood. Anything I learn makes me a better person. That lesson there, terrified me. I wonder if I would've been wrong for walking out of class that day.
