This homework is pretty sensitive, especially to those who have lost someone important and relatively close member of the family. Talking about having close encounters with the dead people is not a joke. My hair shivered and I had goose bumps, I guess I had second thoughts of doing this assignment but I'd just give it a shot.
Last year, I watched a movie entitled Charlie St. Cloud starring Zac Efron as the main character. Charlie St. Cloud is a young man overcome by grief at the death of his younger brother. So much so that he takes a job as caretaker of the cemetery in which his brother is buried. Charlie has a special lasting bond with his brother though, as he can see him. So Charlie St. Cloud has been given the gift of seeing his deceased brother, named Sam. Part from it was to continue the bond that they used to have before his brother left him. They communicate like they're in their normal state. For him to be able to see Sam, there must be no one around. They act like any ordinary brothers playing in the sidewalk. They made each other fulfilled with their presence. But when a girl named Tess entered Charlie's life, this made him choose between seeing Sam every day or go with the girl he loves. But one day, Charlie and Tess were out for a date that Charlie forgot that it's already late and he needs to go to see his brother. He can't tell the truth since this is the biggest secret of his entire life and they made an agreement with his brother that no one should know about it. Charlie then arrived very late at their meeting place. So Sam didn't appear at all. Sam felt that Charlie already forgot about him. But after all, Charlie didn't. But the day came for Charlie to decide on which road to pass. If he'll go for seeing a dead person, or living with the one he loves the most.
Life, is a matter of choice. Live as if it is your last day here on Earth. If I were Charlie, I know how hard it is for me to leave my brother, but he is already dead in the first place. So even though it's painful in my part, I will accept the fact that he's no longer existing. That he is already dead and there's nothing I can do to save him back. Life is for the living and not for the dead. But we still commemorate them by remembering all the good memories they have shared to each one of us. Close encounters with the third kind is something very sensitive, like I said to those who have experienced once or who knows, twice or more. But as for my case, I say I haven't tried any. If I will be given the chance to meet such shivering experience, I hope I can be able to address something that messenger would be saying to me. And for those people who have already passed away, may you all rest in peace. You are already in God's most holy presence. And for the living, value the life that you have right now. Don't flood yourselves with all the problems. Don't worry it's not just you, I have mine too. Don't be sad as if you're carrying the entire universe. Just go with the flow because we can never tell!
