SUICIDE AND SOME OF ITS FACETS Part 1

Th concept of what follows suicide is so different for so many who commit it..  For some it is a route to oblivion from intolerable physical or emotional pain.  For others, is is a route to a glorious afterlife.  Those who believe in Heaven may think to join a loved one in after life unless they are of a religion that forbids that image.  Death by suicide is probably one of the few crimes for which there can me no punishment by our own legal system though it is against the law in most places, a commentary of the ridiculous thinking behind those who think laws can stop anything..

The brain is a human organ, without which there is no life. President Obama has realized it needs much studying for scientist to get a better understanding of factors effecting its formation, what change how it functions and many other criteria.  Since the Iraq war during this last decade, the greatest number of brain damaged veterans ever in history are returning.  Doctor and other scientists need to gather more information on how to improve the quality of life experience, mobility, perception, reading of senses, as well as many other causes that change the brain including both legal and illegal drugs.

Suicide is a personal choice.  The person who uses suicide as an option for a problem solution often thinks little of the effect that choice has on others.  Children walking to their home to find a father having shot himself in the head on the doorstep, with pieces of brains scattered around them in the snow, cannot easily recovery from the shock, sight and loss.  Nor can the wife, dependent on her husband's income for herself and her children, easily recover after opening her front door and seeing her husband's feet hanging before her at eye level at her eye level.

It leaves survivors always wondering what they may have done wrong, whether they could have done more, with the hopelessness of knowing they can never get an answer to that question.  Suicide is death and death is final.   ...to be continued.
