Gotta Get This Off My Chest

Roy took our little puppy, Mochi outside to do her business last week, and when he came in we both had up the same thing to show one another-me on my computer, him on his phone-Robin Williams had passed.

He made us all laugh so many times, and my favorite role of his Sean Maguire in 1997’s Good Will Hunting made me cry, but we now know he was battling his own demons, and they must have run so deep that he took his own life.

Whatever, one thinks of that, whatever your feelings on suicide-respect isn’t hard to show.

An old ‘friend’-and I use the term loosely-of mine from high school posted something on his FB page about how he has no respect for anyone that would take their own life. How they are selfish bastards, and their life now holds no meaning.

Ok, that’s your opinion..but is it so hard to remember those that take their own lives often leave behind people for whom their lives most certainly hold meaning? Are you so ignorant and do you lack any empathy that you can’t keep your verbal diarrhea to yourself? Share it with your wife, or your family.

Just because you CAN post whatever you want, doesn’t always mean you should.

This 'friend’ goes on to say that he hopes if he was ever such a prick and chose this way out, that no one would mourn him. Ok, cool, but you can bet we would mourn for those you leave behind. It’s called respect.

If your understanding of depression is so minuscule that you only see someone’s life (someone that commits suicide) as a cautionary tale, doesn’t that give one’s life meaning? In your small mind, you see their life as what NOT to do-ok, they taught you something, ergo; their life has some meaning.

But again, in the end, this is about respect. NOT everyone shares your views, and your lack of understanding,especially when you chose to phrase it so harshly is hurtful. How can you call these people friends when your words hurt them and you could care less?

To make matters worse, IF you hold that opinion and think it’s your right to say whatever you want, don’t then take to FB, twitter, etc complaining that people don’t want to be your friends anymore. Own your verbal crap and stop whining like a bitch baby.

Ok…I feel better now.
