Harini we have to remember that sane rational human beings are aware of certain morals and values. However sometimes something goes wrong. And a persons judgement is affected. You don't think in a normal manner anymore. This allow you to do and say things that you would not do under normal circumstances. Like people who commit suicide. Something in your head must not connect and allow you to over-rule the most basic human impulse of survival.
@bold - this line right here is so true. Just had the sad news yesterday that a 13 yr old blew his head off, and everyone said they saw no warning signs. No sane, rational, clear-minded person would do something like that.
I really liked your post. I do believe each of us has a breaking point, and sometimes the things one can bear is much less than another person. Anita has faced enormous challenges in her life and she must feel that everything she loves gets taken away from her. It has probably made her paranoid & I truly think she went temporarily insane after her breakdown.
She lost her parents, lost Ahem, whom clearly loved and then lost her fiance on the day of her wedding. These are significant losses and if any of us faced what she did, there is no telling how we would react. She has no one, and when she saw the kindness Ahem showed her in MM she rushed to the conclusion that he must still love me and therefore I will not let this chance of happiness slip through my fingers.
Is she crazy? - Yes
But can we on some level understand how she reached this point - Absolutely.
She has been dealt a cruel fate, all she wanted was love, but her constant rejection has led her to where she is today, her mind has broken from reality and she has become insane.
We need the men in the white coats to take her away.
