Suicide

You are standing, looking down, ready to face the pain of the fall. What will you be remembered for? Courageous because you could take the jump? No. A coward because you could not climb back down. You could not face your fears. You shied away from pain and suffering. Suicide is not your choice to make! You coward, just climb back down and face the real world. Yes, life had pain and fear and suffering. But death in itself will wrap you up in its black embrace and squeeze you until all you see is the darkness behind your cold eyelids. Your soul leaves your body alone and motionless. So just climb back down.
