Suicide

[St. Anky]

I've once before brought up this topic. In the "wanting to kill thyself" forum we discussed suicide and how the thoughts come to mind of committing such an act. In this post, I will discuss my feelings on why one shouldnt.

Sometimes, there's nothing more to life than life itself. Take away all the religion and their dogma and all that is left is the question "why". Why should we live our lives if there's nothing at the end of the rainbow? Why shouldnt I kill myself now when I feel shitty and the entire world seems to be against me? Why cant I just give up?

I'm sure we've all asked at least one of those questions... And a select few might even know people who have just done it and attempted or succeeded at committing suicide. I for one have experienced such a thing first hand tonight and by such an experience, have realized just how fragile life can be. So many people throw everything away for the smallest reasons. No one's life is worth dying for.

Life gets hard, and then harder, and then harder. But there's always those moments that are worth living for. If not for those, then live because you're given the chance to. Eventually we're all going to die, and we'll move on to whatever is in store for us, there's no point in rushing it. And if none of those reasons are good enough for you, then live because there's someone out there who wants you to. Everyone has at least ONE person to love them, and if you cant live for yourself, then do it for them.


thanks for listening.

I'm sorry to hear all that. But you've got a good head on your shoulders there with that "don't kill yourself" shit.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say, that was very well put... all seemingly obvious answers, but you expressed them very well, and made me remember them, props to you.

[St. Anky]

The purpose of course wasnt an "question/answer" post, but more of a "think about what the fuck your life means to you" thing.

In response to the great question of "Why?"

Why not?

[St. Anky]

Because we need smartasses like you on here to piss me off.

This is so true. I wrote something on the topic a while back.

the beginning starts our hauntings
and we seek cover from the rain
a path walked in solitude
never leaves you alone
you try, you try, you try
now try again
your efforts leave you empty
could you ever breathe again?
just let go, now fade away
strive on... dream on...
all in all we’re meant to stumble
find your way to a crawl
our expectations overcome us
and leave us left behind
just let go, now fade away
strive on... dream on...
inhale... let go...
and try to breathe again...

I wasn't trying to piss you off. That is a serious answer. Think about it. If looking for the all encompassing reason for 'why', then the all encompassing answer of 'why not' is actually very reasonable.

Oh yeah, I'd have to say that I disagree with one point you made on there.

I feel that there are some people whom I would die so that they would live. My brother, and other family members are a prime example of this.

50 cent that is a beautiful sentiment... I hope my brother feels the same way.

Of course he does...of...course he...does...

Anky-

My condolances to the incident you have had with all this. After you explained it to me at school today, I was shocked, and decided to visit nubblies to discuss.

Folks, don't shoot yourself in the forehead.

With that being said, I'm going to go ahead and call this a post.
