Life

I came across the postings of an utter arsehole in a forum I visit once in awhile. Someone basically started a new thread which basically spoke of his reflections and thoughts of a friend of his, who decided to take his own life.

The arsehole basically posted and voiced his strong view of how wrong suicide is and that the person who decides to take his life is a coward who has no regard at all to the feelings of the people who loves him.

Who gave him the right to judge? Whatever the reason maybe, we as third parties should not judge. No man can and no one is above another fellow man on this earth who can pass judgement on one's life except God. What we can do instead of voicing our judgemental views is to mourn the loss of a young life.

Don't let that person's life pass on in vain.

Remember the better things in life and take it as a lesson and instead of being bitter, learn to cherish the short time we have on this earth no matter how tough the going can get, there will always be a silver lining.

And to the arsehole who still rant on to justify his statements made in the post, may you find contentment within yourself.

Following is an excerpt of the post.

Loss of a friend...
A friend of mine passed away last week. I have felt the loss of loved ones and friends before but this loss was made a lot more painful because he chose to take his own life.No one of us would ever know why he did it. He told no one his troubles, except for the fact that he was thinking of changing his major in university because it was too hard. He was very active in Uni, among our group or friends and greatly appreciated by those who knew him.Whatever his reason, his decision has robbed his parents of their eldest son, his siblings of an older brother and for the rest of us, a cherished friend.I just wanted to shout out here to point out that taking one's own life doesn't resolve anything. Regardless the kind of trouble or dilemma you are in, it can always be resolved. Family and friends are there for a reason. Use them. They will help even if it hurts or inconveniences them. Just stay alive. The alternative is too painful for others.

The post of that arsehole :-

Sorry to say so, but your frn deserves no pity for his choice of suicide simply shows how selfish and cowardly he is... I only feel sorry for your frn's family and friends who are left behind to suffer the agony of the loss of their loved one...However no point crying over split milk, juz pray that your frn's soul will rest in peace like what XXX had said...
