Grief Comes And Goes, But Depression Is

Suicide Note: The Calm, Cool Face Of The River Asked Me For A Kiss. -langston Hughes

I Am Reminded Of The Importance Of Small Kindnesses.

Every Seventeen Minutes In America, Someone Commits Suicide. Mostly, I Have Been Impressed By How Little Value Our Society Puts On Saving The Lives Of Those Who Are In Such Despair As To Want To End Them. It Is A Societal Illusion That Suicide Is Rare. It Is Not.

Grief Comes And Goes, But Depression Is Unremitting

I Am By Temperament An Optimist, And I Thought From The Beginning That There Was Much To Be Written About Suicide That Was Strangely Heartening.
