In fact it hurts a great deal
It may not hurt you as you go to sleep with your tablet laden body never to move again, and you may not feel the pain of the noose around your neck or the fall from the building or cliff.
But those left behind will feel that pain for the rest of their lives, those left behind will not have the grace of death to blot out the nastiness or the recriminations.
Those left behind,
I wonder
have you actually thought about them at all?
Let me show you what you leave behind you, before you make that final decision, let me show you the havoc your final decision creates in the world you have decided no longer deserves your presence.
Your wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend/parents, will always wonder why you did not go to them, why they could not help, what could they have done to prevent it, why they did not manage to be there to stop it. Why you did not love them enough to let them in, where they failed.
Your children/siblings, Will always wonder what they did to make you leave them, what they could have done to prevent it, why they could not be there to stop it, why you did not love them enough to let them in, will they end up the same way
Yout friends, will always wonder, why you did not go to them, why you would not let them in, why they could not help, why were they not there with you, to stop you, where did they go wrong.
Of these people some of them will hate you for what you have done, for a long time, though underneath they will always love you.
For most of them you will leave a lifetime of self doubt and a feeling of being unable to come to terms with what has happened.
Before you take that final step and make that ultimate decision, think.
Think hard
How would you feel if you were one of those left behind?
And dont use the excuse that they are better off, that you are doing it for them, because to be true to them and show them how much you really do care, you would stay and not take that final step, you would show them by being there and doing your best to make things right, and by letting them help you to do it.
you are never alone, though you think you are, because there is always someone left behind, so how can you be alone?
It is never easy to face your demons, your shortcomings, your adversary, but, you can always ask for help.
A whole life in front of you and a whole world of adventures to discover, why throw it away when it is just round the corner?
Please think again.
