The Steps to Deal with Obsession

By: Daniel Lee

            Over time, here in Paris many cases of murder have arose due to obsession. Now everyone is human and having to be obsessed with something is ruining our concentration. The most recent case of Claude Frollo murdering La Esmeralda was because he was so obsessed with her that no one but he can have her, this led to him giving her the option either choosing him or turning her to the authorities. This led to Frollo and Esmeralda to think about what option they will choose. Esmeralda made the right choice and decided to choose death over having to marry someone she doesn’t like. Obsession can be dealt with by thinking about other priorities that may be more important. Frollo put all concentration on loving Esmeralda when she never loved him back. We must forget what we are obsessed by and think about the future and how we can change our habits. Obsession can be dealt with in many ways it’s whether we have strength inside us to conquer ourselves and change.
