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.
