I guess I don’t understand. Perhaps I’m too young or too naïve, or just refusing to. There are lots of things I don’t understand in life: love, death, sadness, karma. One of the things I hate talking about though is death. It’s just scary to think about.
And branching off of death, I don’t understand is people who wish to kill themselves. What good is that doing anyways? My take on it is that the person is selfish for wanting to take their life and hurting everyone around them.
But at the same time, I know I don’t know or comprehend what is going on in their heads. I’m sure some of the reasons behind people committing suicide are things that I will never have anything to compare to.
It really bugs me when people joke around about killing themselves. When they do it just to get attention and would never do such a thing. I know that whenever someone even mentions it, you should take it seriously. But there is a point where you can tell when someone is just saying it to say it. I had a friend like that back in middle school; they would make jokes and stuff about yeah I’m thinking I’m going to kill myself if it keeps up like this. I could understand that they were just screwing around to get attention and such.
What else is peculiar to me is why people who have those problems or who are dealing with something so stressful don’t get help or don’t talk about it sooner.
It’s so sad that they believe taking their life will make everything better. I remember having conversations with David about this before. It says in the Bible that suicide is not acceptable and will not get you into Heaven. And yet people want to die so bad, they are willing to take their life, but they won’t go to Heaven.
It’s scary because my sister is on medication right now and a side effect warning that they’ve issued is that it’s common for teenagers to commit suicide if taken off of the medicine too quickly.
I don’t know.
Today was busy though. Just thought I’d throw that in there last minute.
