Sweat

Well maybe Delia's act is considered somehwhat immoral. Although Sykes may have mistread her and tried to kill her with the possibility of the snake poisoning her, she shouldn't commit the same mistake just as he did. Yeah maybe it is to defend herself but I am not really even sure if she was going to inform him of the danger that the hamper withheld.

But wait! Perhaps this was her only outlet to freedom? When I ask myself this question I can honestly say that her act can't really be defined as immoral or amoral. Forget about the ethics held high in society. The gift of having free will upon this planet is something that should be taken with much gratitude and you only live once so what happens when you have someone taking this ability from you? Could your only solution be to cease his existence? If so then are you brave enough to actually take this persons life? Sure, if you feel passionate about your belief in free will then maybe your strife overcomes your fear. Delia may have not had the power to take Sykes life, but she did find a loop within her tangled life.

I realise that I haven't spend much time reading philosophy, but I did find the good stuff early one - Nietzsche and Ayn Rand. They just make sense to me.

Interesting blog you have here, please check mine out sometime.
