The alligator river story

The alligator river story
In all the things you do in your life you have to take into account different variables such as values, timing and many other aspects in order to take and make the right decisions for yourself and as well for others that might be involve
this story shows the discrepancies of the decisions and attitudes of the caracters and how they can clash one to another. That's why it is important to respect and try to understand different points of view in order to avoid conflict.

There lived a woman named Abigail who was in love with a man named Gregory. Gregory lived on the shore of a river. Abigail lived on the opposite side of the same river. The river that separated the two lovers was teeming with dangerous crocodiles. Abigail wanted to cross the river to be with Gregory. Unfortunately, a heavy flood has washed out the bridge the previous week. So she asked Sinbad, a river captain, to take her across. He said he would be glad to if she would consent to go to bed with him prior to the voyage. She promptly refused and went to a friend named Ivan to explain her plight. Ivan did not want to get involved at all in the situation. Abigail felt her only alternative was to accept Sinbad's terms. Sinbad fulfilled his promise to Abigail and delivered her into the arms of Gregory.

When Abigail told Gregory about her amorous escapade in order to cross the river, Gregory cast her aside with disdain. Heartsick and rejected, Abigail turned to Slug with her tale of woe. Slug, feeling compassionate for Abigail, sought out Gregory and beat him brutally. Abigail was overjoyed at the sight of Gregory getting his due. As the sun set on the horizon, people heard Abigail laughing at Gregory

According to my point of view I would rank them this way:
most offensive (5) least objectionable (1)

• Ivan (1): Ivan didn't want to get involved in such complicated problem so he just stayed away which I think is completly understandable, maybe he could support his friend but that doesn't mean he acted badly


• Gregory (2): I think Gregory had all the rights to be mad because the way Abigail acted. He didn't do anything wrong.


• Sinbad (3): He acted in a bad way and he should have helped her without asking anything but he didn't make her do anything she didn't want, it was her decision and she chose to accept the undecent offer.


• Slug (4): He is a very impulsive person and he shouldn't have get involved in Abigail's and Gregory's problem, starting with that he didn't even know all the facts.


• Abigail (5): She is the most offensive because first of all she slept with Sinbad which I think is unacceptable and then she enjoyed when Slug hit Gregory even though she supposedly love him.<>
