i love that suicide song from M.A.S.H. (...in early morning's light i see etc.) johnny mandel. i love that. and i think of that when the going gets too tough at times. overcame it over and over. but isn't there a point you just step off? if so how so?

* i really like the statement: You can die at anytime, but it takes true bravery to live. the cows in the meadow contentedly graze in the meadow. the don't know they will be butchered tomorrow. i am not a dumb animal. i see the butcherman. i see his knife. don't step off says one, god will push you off when he is ready. yuk. you are right but waiting is hard. living is harder than dying they say.

The thing of it is...
i.e. capture by the enemy
As long as you're still alive, don't you think there's a reason for it?
Call it coincidence if you please, but, considering how many things can kill you per day, from the common to the bizarre...
The fact that you're still alive seems to say there's a reason, and while many believe in differing reasons, and it is up to you to decide which is yours...
I believe it is because there's a God who loves you and has a purpose for your life, and I'll add the Bible to the list of things to read.
You can die at anytime, but it takes true bravery to live.

You're too young to measure life and find it too wanting. Life is hard, full of a lot of trials and struggles, but you need to find something positive to do and move forward.
Some people cling to religion at times like these, and it sometimes sustains them, but it also leaves them open to the false promises of those who tend to feed off of religion like parasites(Many pastors and mullahs are not kind hearted souls looking to help you find God, many are politicians trying to make money and power off of your pain and suffering. Think Mullah Sadr or Jerry Falwell)
Look for the next horizon and look for something to keep you busy.

I was once suicidal until I learned that my gun worked both ways. Don't kill yourself until you have done every thing you have ever feared. If you kill yourself while still being afraid to talk to that girl, or go to that social gathering, you are a coward. Die with your boots on man, not panties.

You don't ever have to step off. Wait for God to push you off when it's your time.

no, that is not the way out. you are not solving problems by killing yourself. life is meant to be enjoyed and we should should praise God through everything. if you need someone to talk to, i am here. but that will not solve anything. you can contact me through my profile
