Suffering In silence

Today I found myself weeping for the tragic loss of someone I never even met.

 It seems that in these tumultuous times more and more of our brothers and sisters are suffering in silence.  Whether the despair comes from the long lasting scars of life, ( like hazing/bullying, war etc.)  from crisis of identity, or whether stricken with the disease of depression, far too many young people are giving up on life and ending it all.

  Having felt extreme highs and lower 'lows' in life I totally understand those feelings. But I also understand that no matter what hand we are dealt in life, there is always a better solution than giving up.  

The worst day of your life is still better than no life at all.  Whatever your calling or purpose in life, God did not put us here to quit. Finishing the 'game' so to speak is our most important calling as human beings.

 If you still have air in your lungs then you have all you need to start changing things for the better and to seek help!  

Do not suffer in silence.  There are enough things in this world that could potentially kill us,  don't speed up the process!

Each day is another chance to turn it all around.  

Let's talk.


Rant complete. Thx for listening
