so, today my parents were talking about somebody in taiwan who committed suicide because they were under too much pressure to do well and cuz they were depressed

and i was talking to my bro and he goes: "suicide is mean! just because you're sad doesn't mean you should make other people sad! you should become happy again! and even if you can't, isn't it better for one person to be sad than for all his family and friends to be sad? it's just so...selfish."

this coming from a 6 year old. so why can't that person in taiwan, who was 20-something, understand the same principles? even when you think things are too painful and you want to fade into oblivion...think about the ones you love. your parents, family, friends, and all the beautiful things in life you'll never see again. you might think that nobody cares but they do. and you're not the only person in the world and you shouldn't force your own misery upon the world.

it's selfish

and what if you really don't have anybody? find somebody.
