Assalamu'alaikum...

It's hard for me to betray to anyone because it'll affect my whole life.
But if it necessary, i'll think it properly the matter that force me to betray others. i'll try to decide the best decision.

this one is a tough question..
what is this question for??
since i'm living, a good citizen and love this malaysia, i wouldn't to betray to my country..
and since i've a family and friends, who are very close and important to me, it never cross in my mind to betraying them..
if the option must to betray, i betraying to all..

from my opinion,
it is difficult 2 choose which one of them, bcoz it all important to me..

if i betray my country,
i will get punishment from the goverment.
Malaysia is my country.
And malaysia is one of the most peaceful country in the world.
So, why i want to betray my own country.

if i betray my family,
i will regret for my whole life.
Withoout them, i never been born now..

if i betray my friends,
i will lost trustness among my friendz..
its not worthy to betray them...
it will cause more negativeness than positiveness..

I rather die then betray my own country, family and friends.
So, i advise to all of you to :

Love your country,
trust your friends,
and Be nice to your family.

From,
NOb!T.. =)

why i must choose...
and why i must become a betrayer...
this very dificult to answer...
there must be a reason to be a betrayer...
and i don't have the reason...
so i can't betray my country, my family and my friends...

My beloved country,family and friends...

I'll not choose either one of them for me to betray...I love them all...even I'm not so patriotic,but I will never betray my country...

My country is where I live for this 19 years,my family whose be besides me since I was born and my friends whose shared part of their life with me...

Is that rational if I betrayed them??

I'll never betrayed them till my last breath,till the end of time...that's for sure...

And I also will not betray you my beloved lecturer,so i post this comment...(^.~)"

The word BETRAY...... may sound simple but it is not easy to be done.

To betray our country , family and friends is not as simple as the word betray.......

BETRAY.....why should we do that.
we shouldn't betray to anyone especially to our country, family and friends.

I really hope that I will never ever face this kind of a situation im my life.

sk_cute said...

Should i betray anyone??? No...i wont do that...
My country is where i was born. I should respect and be faithful to this country.
My family is as my life...Once i betray any of my family members then i will regret in whole of my life.. so should i do that?? of course NO...
My Friends are those who will give a shoulder for me when i need help or facing any problems in my life.So i dont want treason any of my friends. This is because if i do that than it means im the most stupid girl who want to lose such a great friends in my life. Life is useless without friends.
So based on the statement i dont want betray my country, my family and my fiends.

"IF YOU HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN BETRAYING YOUR COUNTRY,
YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR FRIENDS,
WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE..."

First of all,I have to say this is the most toughest question I have heard...

But,I don't see any reason of why I have to betray one of them. They all mean so much to me. How can I live as the human being without them by my side? How!? Could anyone please tell me..please!!

Why this such of question is exist?
I can't stand if anyone willing to betray any of their country,family and friends. I think he/she is the most selfish human in the world or maybe he/she going to be nuts..that for sure.

If you choose to betray your country, then you should be ashamed of yourself. As long as you live in this country (Malaysia) which one of the most peaceful and politically stable, don't you ever feel grateful? Do you want to live like the people in other unstable country?Live in fear, starving, suffering, being like a slave? Think for yourself.

The worst thing is if you choose to betray your own family..I think you better make up your mind and think for twice or trice. Don't you really love them? You will never have chance to see this world without them. Think as a wise student and use all of your sense of human being.

Your friends.Will you choose to betray them? Then I think that you should live alone in this world.Doing all the things by yourself..you will have no sweet memories for the rest of your life. I'm really sure with that.

It's hard to say if anyone can choose rather to betray any of this lovely things in our life. I can't stand to this people..oh no,nonestly I can't..I want to insist that would not betray anyone in my life eventhough I have to pay it with my own blood.Allahuakbar!!!

when i'm read this statement..
i don't have the best answer to explain about that..
because this is the most tough question...

if you had to choose between betraying your country,
your family and your friends,which would you choose

for me...
to betray someone is very impossible...
so i don't think to choose anyone of else...
because the answer to betray anyone of them
will give the bad effect to my life...
family...friends...and country...
they all are my life...without them
maybe i'm not standing here today...
i loved them damn so much..
so..of course i would not betray anyone of them...
eventhough i have no choice...

A Dad is a person
who is loving and kind,
And often he knows
what you have on your mind.

He's someone who listens,
suggests, and defends
A dad can be one
of your very best friends!

He's proud of your triumphs
but when things go wrong
A dad can be patient
and helpful and strong.

In all that you do,
a dad's love plays a part
There's always a place for him
deep in your heart.

And each year that passes
you're even more glad,
More grateful and proud
just to call him your dad!

Thank you, Dad ...
for listening and caring
for giving and sharing
but, especially, for just being you!


This poem I read last night…After calling my dad...
Dad, I’m really miss u so much…You are my admire…my best friend…my love…
When I’m in trouble you always be beside me…When I have a problem you always to be with me… I’m really love you…really…
Waiting for me...i will back…yeah…

Betray

For me I wont betray anyone, country, friend and so on, if they are not betray me. For me is very simple, who trade me well, I will trade well back to them. But who betray me, I will just say sorry to them. Hhahaha. So, serious in writing. But all of this is just writing in blog not a real. What is the real. If someone need me choose , I iwill choose myself. I will betray myself than others. I also don’t know why I choose that but i always think that is right.

i was thinking about this question
for 100times.hehe..For me,i don't care about patriotic.What i care most are my country,friends,and my beloved family.So, i won't ever betray any of them.

My country,MALAYSIA is the best place i ever had in the world.It make me feel safety and peaceful.When some country had to faced with wars, crisis and disaster,we still can live in our country peacefully.Thankful to Allah..

My friends?? They teach me how to enjoy in this lifes..funs and tears that we shared togather will always be in my heart.I won't keep it in my mind because mind always forgot.

Last but not least,my family..from them, i had learn the meaning of love, sacrifice and how to face with the world.Without them, i won't able to be here today..
All of them are very meaningful in my life.Betraying them just like killing my self..

BETRAYAL......

If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.
E. M. Forster

This quote has been in my mind since I first read it years ago. And while I think it is salutory on the surface it disturbs me as well.

It seems to me it would depend on what my friend had done, (or neglected to do). I admit to being perhaps overly reliant on believing that we should be judged on how we act, not what we say, but I'm certain that a "friend" could do things that I could not condone.

Friendship, it seems to me, is one of the most valuable things in life, but I think values and principles should transcend even friendship.

And to the debate (maybe?):
I guess I would say it in the reverse:
If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my friend.

For instance, if you knew a friend:
1)was spying for another country whose goals you did not appove of
2)had killed or seriously harmed someone

would you feel compelled to turn them in and if not, why not?

I think I would...so I am stretching "country" into the government/law enforcement in general...

"Don't die just because everyone else does." Sartre

In my view, I think I will never betray anyone because family, nation and friends are very important in my life. I prefer to be nice with everyone because everyone play important role in my life.Other than that, betraying others will effect my life, since family and friends have a big trust on me. I also got no heart to betray my nation because i born here and brought up here until now.In other hand, family and friends used to help me a lot whenewer i am down with problems. So, I really got no heart to betray my family, friends and nation.
