A world issue that is currently happening is Nature and Animal Conversation. This has to do with indecision because the human race wants to save the animals and their environments, but they also want to destroy the habitats for their own pleasure. To build and gain money.
The deaths of the loved ones of Domingo shows the theme because if he had not thought about the family he left behind, neither of his families would have died. His "son" and his son would be alive and his girlfriend and his wife would be alive.
When you come to a fork the road, your brain thinks, which way do I go? If you go down one way and start thinking about the other that is called indecision. When you take one, and then think about the other, you may become distracted and get lost or crash.

" 'I have led them all to their deaths. I could have saved them. I have lost everything.' " (Holthe 362)
A guerrilla leader. These groups fought in their own army against the larger armies.
"I feel it hard in my chest, yet there is no time to feel. I had pictured him on the farm, back in school, as a grown man, later with a young wife. Stop this, think only of the battle now." (Holthe 352)
I learned about war and the life in it even when you do not want to be. I also learned how soldiers can be so unfair. But, I also learned that if you keep fighting and never give up, good things happen.
The story is taking place in the Philippine Islands. During WWII, when the Americans and the Japanese are fighting to take over the Islands.
Quote:
" 'The moment my thoughts turned back to this warehouse...' " (Holthe 362)
" 'I have killed them all with my indecision.' Domingo buries his head in Taba's hair and rocks back and forth. He looks at Tay Fredrico. 'You were right, old man. The moment my thoughts turned back to this warehouse, I should have run the opposite way. I should have listened to your words. At least I would still have my men and Nina. I have led them all to their deaths. I could have saved them. I have lost everything.' "(Holthe 362)
