Suicide affects us all. Whether through our personal experience, our family, our school, our community, even if we just here about it on the news, we are all affected by suicide. The national suicide rate in our country is astounding. It’s terrible. It’s startling.
It’s saddening.
The feeling that one has to feel to willingly take his or her own life is the ultimate low in human experience. To end your own life prematurely is to be beyond desperate, beyond pain, beyond fear, beyond death.
That everyday people feel that way and commit suicide, dozens every week, hundreds every month, is almost sickening. The fact that they have no one to go to in a country of hundreds of million people is the worst testament against American social society today.
Please, join us in this year’s National Suicide Prevention Week in the fight against death. Every person has the power to make a change in someone’s life. Change someone’s life today. It’s easy. All you have to is show that you care, even in the smallest way. Show that you are capable of Love.
Change someone’s life, and I can almost guarantee you that yours will be changed as well.
With love to all,
