We opened a "Pandora's Box" last night during our discussion on "Words", and that "Pandora's Box" was SUICIDE. Far too many of us have seen the ugliness of suicide first-hand, and it always begs more questions than it answers. I lost my first wife to suicide October 22, 1997, and over the past five years, I have written three articles about suicide which I posted to my blog. These are from my perspective, based on my experiences, and you may or may not relate to them. Discussion is welcome, and if you would prefer to discuss it privately, send me a message.

The loss of one who has committed suicide is always fresh on the mind. Thank you for sharing a very personal part of your life.

I counsel suicide survivors and they all want to know why. Even when there is a note, it rarely really explains it.

SGT Steve McFarland So sorry you had to face your loss. It takes all the air out of you. I have to help parents how have lost their children, and all they tell me is that had no clue. They probably had many clues but ignored the, ASK!!!

Some clues don't become obvious until after-the-fact. I had two clues that were that way... One was a "prediction", which I dismissed, and I dismissed the other one as an "ordinary inquiry". I sold both items afterwards.
