    Suicide is the Wrong Answer

    09:46Suicide is the Wrong Answer
    • Just remember, it takes time to do so. Because it's actually you that's changing. And you're stubborn. That won't make proper sense to you until you go through it. The only thing that's different between the unhappy version of you and the happy version of you is you. The material differences are a result of those changes. As you shift into pressuring your life to move in the direction you want, appropriate forms of wealth start coming back to you in the form of happiness and success. A lot of people get depressed about relationships. Believe me, I've been there. But what I didn't know then was as you get older, you actually start to appreciate those losses. You learn from them and they slowly become part of your life's experiences. You let go of the pain and the hate or regret or other negative emotions. You grow, you learn, and it makes you a more interesting person. And one day, you look out on a beach or at the sky and you slowly realize that you've grown. In some strange way, you're actually happy those bad things happened to you. Imagine that. So we know time can heal you during your life. We know that suffering actually does end. And after the suffering, you can become a better person. But what about death? Isn't that an option? Can't we just skip the suffering? I used to think so. When I was a young boy, I tried to commit suicide, which I talk about in my book. I felt like my life was already ruined. It was totally real to me. I was nine. When I was 15, abandoned by my family, I tried again. To me, there was just no point in pushing on. Why bother when I could just start over with a new life? But you see, I was actually wrong about that. I was too young and cocksure to get it. What I didn't realize then is this combination of ideas. First, like I said, life actually does get better with time. All you need to do is be patient. More patient than you think. And you need to try. But also, after much careful thought, I realized that death is not a way out. If there's a heaven, we can't get there without a full life of trying to do the right thing. And a natural death. If there's reincarnation, we need to adhere to the same standards. Try to be good and die a natural death. And do you remember how much being a baby sucked? Think long and hard about what life is like as a baby. Are you in a hurry to do that again? Or what about reincarnation as an animal? Have you ever seen a documentary before?
