Answer 1

Your question, your honesty, your perceptions, your sensitivity, your awareness, is such a joy to hear.
Those (job/babies) are so not the reasons to live.
It can't be about things outside of you or you are doomed.
I don't have a job, a family or any of the drone stuff that you mentioned. There are SOOOOO many ways to live a life.
You can create whatever kind of world you want to.
Don't buy into the dregs of the pointless existence that you speak of because clearly it does not float your boat.
The trick is to steer clear of those people that try to force conforming onto you and to instead find people who ride on your wave of awareness and consciousness.
And how do we know whether anything has a beginning or an end. Truth is, people conjure up all kinds of things in their heads, but we know nothing at all.
Yeah, having a body is a pain, especially as you age.
I would really like to read your essay. Will you send it to me.
Oh, and I think the way you write your letters is cool.
Like I said, steer clear of those who judge you.
You are magic! Thanks for being so real!

Answer 2

Curiously enough, I think the answer is rather simple in this case. Paradoxically, the fact of the matter is that there is still SO MUCH that you don't know anything about in this Universe and yet, at the tender and hormone-slaved age of 14, you have bought enough into the society's corny definition of a "meaningful life" (e.g. grow up, have kids, go to church, pay bills, die, etc.) to base such an irreversible and FINAL decision, as suicide, on so LITTLE knowledge! ... Frankly, I find that AMAZING!

I have a suggestion for you. Now that you seem to be so keen on doing away with yourself, why don't you at least put your parents' night of love (okay passion/lust, think of it as you like) that led up to you to some good use? Get out there (NO I do NOT mean runaway physically, I mean mentally get out there) and muster the courage to live a compassionate and authentic life on your own terms; knowing full well that sh!t can and will always happen. Do what makes your heart and mind happy, and without hurting others, and if you still, after a year or so of leading a truly authentic life (i.e. being true to yourself and free of society's suffocating code of meaning) feel the same, then come back here and we'll talk again.

Answer 3

It is human nature to feel depression or angst after one had undergone through a series of frustrations, disappointments, and lonely experiences brought about by life.

But then again, to lose the desire to continue living is another factor. It means that whatever flicker of hope you have had died out already. Damn, you're just 14 and you are feeling that already.

I, on the other hand, can't tell you that life is beautful or that the world we live in is simply wonderful-- for it is a relative thought, it is your own view that counts.

You must be undergoing through depression dear, just as i am too. But then again, though I, as well, had lost the desire to live, I am still here fighting it.

Life is what we make it. It is the result of what we would want it to be. It is a matter of choice.

Yes, life, itself, can be a crap. But you can choose to look beyond it and make it not.

Be happy, or at least try to be. Do not let other people control or in any way manipulate on how you would want to live.

Do what you wish to do. Doze off. Have sex. Have fun. Cheat on exams. Whatever-- for it makes you happy. (Though I must stress out on this part that you must think of the consequences your actions may lead you to :P)

So there, just be who you are. Try to breath some oxygen. Make loads of friends (that is what helped me through until now). Have a religion.

Answer 4

You were given a life where a life somewhere else was not granted. Think of those that were born that cannot move, see, think, talk, or dream like we can. They live their lives proud of the fact that they have a life.
People in other countries raised into slavery or starvation, they still go on. You are in fact fortunate.
To live this life to the fullest with the best you can do without giving up, is a battle in itself and makes you stronger than the ones that surrender to nothing.

Answer 5

I am 44 years old and our 20 year young son did commit suicide 2 and a half years ago. At times I feel suicidal too but I stop short of doing it because I think of my loved ones that I would leave behind.
Try to work thru the crisis you are going through in your life right now. Get with some friends and do some fun things together. YOU ARE WAY TOO YOUNG TO DIE.
You don't know the effect a suicide has on a person's family. My husband cries, usually in private in his own room...I have cried an ocean of tears in private and in public places, like in shopping malls, especially in or walking by stores that our son and I used to go shopping with together and I cry in the middle of the street. Our daughter lashes out at everyone because of the loss of her brother. And our younger son tries to sleep away the pain of the loss of his older brother. S.O.S to others answering this question...could you please help me pray for this young boy...I don't want to cry anymore.

Answer 6

Well you should just stay alive and live life to the fullest.. yes what you said earlier is true... but also there are so much fun things you can do in life... first of all getting married... once your married you dont have kids right away... you get to spend each and every day with somone you love very much... also there are many things you can do for fun as in hobbies... like white water rafting... sailing... etc... and even when you have a kid you can have fun with him still... teaching him a sport bringing him to amusment parts and all of that..

Answer 7

Be like a strong tree is ther midst of a ranging storm...Life is beautiful and no it is not to get a nice job and make babies...
Humans tend to take things for granted and are never satisfied. GO find yourself, do and work for what you love... Be kind to people...
remmeber that The deaf and the blind have it much worse.
Bottom line is if you want to find out more as to why life is beautiful then just ask...

Answer 8

The point is you have a life. So why waste it by shortening it. You have fun, make friends & go through lots of things so even if you think life is meaningless shove it in whoevers face who made our meaningless lives and make your life meaningful. Have fun and take risks. Your making life sound so cliche. You don't have to get a wonderful job and very few do and you don't have to have children.
Don't kill yourself because I bet that somebody cares about you and they value your life even if you don't

Answer 9

There's also not much point in writing such questions if you cannot even determine the difference between Roman digits and letters of the alphabet when you write a question in English. Do you really expect anybody to take you seriously like that?

Answer 10

Because you want to live... if you do not want to live, then there would be no point in life. This is the way it is rather than the opposite way you put it that since there is no point in life, you do not want to live. (please read this sentence once again to understand what I mean, because I think I have not constructed this sentence very well).

All we need to do is to know what our deeper long-term desires are as distinct from the ordinary short term desires, and the meaning to our life lies in working towards fulfilling those. It doesn't matter whether we succeed in fulfilling them before our death or not.... the desire is to fulfill but the purpose is served by working towards fulfilling them.
