Pandora's Box

"Suicide is it worth it?"
I've always read about suicides in the newspapers but I never thought that one would actually happen within reachable distance. This is the second time it proved me wrong.

When a mother has a child, all she thinks about is the health of her child. I'm sure all those who were sickly as a child would understand this. And every year is a step into adulthood and safety. 
"The crime of suicide lies rather in its disregard for the feelings of those whom we leave behind"
I may sound harsh but I really think that it was really inconsiderate of her. She should stop and think about other people. Not to mention the inconvenience she caused. Parents should never have to see themselves outlive their child.
"Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" 
I mean no disrespect but I believe that there isn't anything worth dying for. Suicide isn't the only solution. Sometimes, you need to see things in a different perspective. Life is not all bad all the time. Choose to believe -  that there will always be light at the end of the tunnel, the silver in the cloud. 

But now, we will not question her for what's done is done. Always remember there is always Hope. Guard it well against your heart so that you won't be tempted to give it up. May she rest in peace - Lalitha

Suicide, is it worth it?
Only the dead who committed suicide can answer that.

I know you don't mean any disrespect to those who suicide but you have to understand why people suicide.

Sometimes, it's not that life has been bad to them. Sometimes, they can be from good homes without much major problems yet they suicide.

I get where people who suicide come from.
And it's tough for them in these critical moments.
And unfortunately, they can't see another perspective when they are in these moments. It's also useless to tell them otherwise.

Don't bother telling them how the sun will shine when the rain ends. It doesn't work.
WHY?
Most probably, they have been waiting for a long time and yet, the sun failed to come.

The kind of pain that drives a person to suicide is actually quite terrible.

And we all have to understand that people will suicide. We can only help them if they allow us to.

RIP to your friend. May she be in peace.
