Thank you for that....From a person who has lost three extended family members to suicide. It is such a shockingly horrible thing to happen.

Re: Kabu
Despite the fact the words didn't format properly, I make this post on FB every Friday afternoon. You would think the fact I only have 125 people on my friends list, I will get five to twelve emails or calls every week.
My father always told me that a REAL friend will *stand the gap* for his/her friend when they need someone to do that. I've done this all my life, and I know I saved a number of lives by being there for them to talk.
I don't do it for glory, but rather than doing it to repay God for the treasures I have been given. I've been shot twice and stabbed in the chest. Yes, I lived to get up and do it again. I am happy with myself and my life. I fear very little. When it's time to go home, I will be ready.
True story.

Beautiful post. My hope is that no one needs to call you because
they're coping and working through the depression - but I also hope if they need help they will call. I believe you could make all the difference. Thank you.

Thank you. A beautiful Post. When my first marriage ended I took all the blame on my self. Neither of us had behaved perfectly it was quite half and half. However my Son's were teenagers and i felt so bad when I saw their struggles. I sat on the edge of a black hole of my own making. No I din't really want to die but that black hole tempted me in my heart. Instead I took 4 months out of my parenting and obligations and bought myself a round the World airline ticket. Best thing I ever did.
