I need to vent...
My mother's first husband (with whom she had remained friends) was a para. He recently committed suicide. This has made my mother very upset, and personally, I find him at fault. In my way of looking at things, suicide isn't just stupid, it's wrong. I don't buy the thinking that `It's hard to blame him, considering...' This guy had options. Not to belittle the problems, but most people have some aspects of our lives we don't like at all but can't change. I myself have experienced quite a bit, and say what you will, I know myself enough to know I would have the will to live in his situation. I know there are lots of other people out there doing it, including many of you here and some really beautiful people, and I have a lot of respect.
Please, nobody make the mistake he made! It affects people beyond what you would imagine (especially if you're thinking no one cares about you). I think most people underestimate just how much other people appreciate them. We all have the opportunity to be leaders and assist our fellow humans in the goals of life, no matter our physical abilities.
Just looking for people to talk to...
