Suicide is the Wrong Answer
- I'm not there to see them. See what I mean? So if you go, maybe that means we all go. And honestly, I'd like to keep trying. Don't take that from me. Okay, maybe you think that's just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo. Fine. What about if just nothing happens? A person dies, the rest of the world goes on, and there is no experience. So what's the problem there? Well, death is an admission of carnality. It's a voluntary or forced acceptance of this reality being superior to one's own. I don't like that idea. I want to fight it. I want to prove the world wrong. It may feel like you can win the struggle by submitting to death, but what you're really doing is more like winning a trial by signing a confession. You might feel right in the moment, but you weren't. There was still hope, you just didn't see it. Believe me, the hope is real. But in a more practical sense, the thing to pay attention to here is that there are hundreds or even thousands of people out there that you have affected. As you get older, you occasionally start to run into them and realize this more and more. We humans like to pretend we're cool. We're unaffected. We're individuals, independent, cold. But we do feel you. We are affected by you, even when you feel alone. Even when you think we're all against you. Even when we say we don't want you. Don't believe us because it's a lie. We love you and we need you here. Because underneath it all, we're scared too. So stay with us and let's push through this together. Thanks everybody. Xiexie.
