Suicide
I wonder how lost the soul must be to end up having to end your own life.
I wouldn’t define suicide as courage or cowardice but a rather a state of utter hopelessness.
Of course I would never condone such an act but I won’t withold my pity either.
Is depression a disease? I think it can be.
I think the problems with us human beings, it that we cannot get our minds off ourselves. In doing so we would be able to help others and possibly be free from this depression. When a person is with you and speaks life to you, it makes all the difference. How rare it is to find such caring people... and when you mind is off yourself, I find you can be so much happier. Nevertheless, it is not that simple. To break habits and mindsets is a challenge and a challenge that is taken way too lightly,
To attempt to understand, one must truly understand the heart and mind of the person. It is always deeper than we realize. Perhaps you have never felt alone or been alone as these people are.
I've noticed that we are all made differently, some with more empathy or sensitivity than others, some with a large splash of logic and rationalism and some people live with their heads in the clouds. We are all different and cannot expect to have the same perception or outlook on life, death or anything for that matter. We can listen and accept that this is there reality; their views. But it is totally unfair to judge those whom life has not been too kind to or those who did not have the strength to keep moving on.
Courage or cowardice? Neither.
