I would do the same as this oneAthena Moon wrote:To put it simply, I believe each person crossing your life conveys some sort of important message denying them would be rejecting your destiny, well, some sort of thing like that. No matter the struggle, each encounter is meaningful and is destined to happen. Even if you we reject it, it might find its way back to us in the most unpleasant way. At least that's what I've learned from my life and if I were Tom, I would do the same. I would accept Sarah not because she might be a family, but because she might be an opportunity given by life.

Tom saw his daughter in this girl even at the beginning. I don't know if I would have wanted her to come on the trip but Ruth made it clear she did not want her.meteku4 wrote:I've been reflecting on what happened that morning. Tom's ex-wife walks up to him and introduces some frail-looking girl as his granddaughter as they were getting ready for that special trip. If you were Tom, what would you do?
For me, I would react differently than Tom did. I would probably pick up some quarrel with Ruth arguing about the girls origin, or maybe I would reject the girl outrightly. Hmmm... I'm still thinking of what I would have done if I had been Tom. Tell me your reaction.
