Outside Reading #4

"I thought I’d explained it clearly before. Bella, I can’t live in a world where you don’t exist." (Meyer 509)
This quote from New Moon, made me think about how much people depend of the ones they love throughout their lives. In the book, Bella doesn't think she can survive without Edward, and Edward feels the same way. He was even willing to kill himself if didn't exist.
In real life, sometimes when an old ladys husband dies, theres a possibility she will die too within the next 6 months of his death, of a broken heart. if she makes it past 6 months, she will survive. This also shows that people depend on one anothers love to live. Once you find and experience being with the the person you love most in the entire world, it seems really hard to live without them. Almost like you've forgotten how. Like once they've emotionally become part of who you are, they become physically a part of who you are. So, if they're no longer around, for whatever reason, you're not whole. How can you live without that other person if they complete you? If they make you who you are.
