This is something interesting that I found in Jay's blog that I like to talk about:
“One of the interesting things that we discussed about was how isolated she seemed in her life. (Melinda) We thought that she seemed isolated because she had no friends at all, except for the new girl that she had a one-sided friendship with. Also, in her family life, she was very isolated at home. She did not have much contact with her parents, and when her parents came home, all she would do would be to go upstairs into her room while her parents left her alone and watched t.v in their living room.”
Sadly, this is one of the horrible truth in life. Not everyone's life is perfect and some may have it way better than others. The character “Melinda” seems to be an perfect example for this theory. As to what Jay and his group described the lifestyle of Melinda to be, it reveals to me that she is one of those people that have truly been hurt inside of her heart. A person that has been isolated by everyone around you including your family is a person that can say that they truly know the meaning of pain. The pain of knowing that there is no one out there that you count on and the pain of knowing that no one is out there that would look out for you.
In my opinion, I truly believe that nobody in this world should be treated in such a way. Everybody deserved to have a good family and good friends around you. However, what I'm saying right now is nothing more than wishful thinking. The sad reality of life is that there will always be a person out there in the world that has a life like Melinda. In the hope of having a better future though, I hope everybody in the world can understand what people like Melinda are dealing with, and if they truly understand, they would be willing to help by being there for that person and becoming a person that people like Melinda can truly count on.
