Hello, everyone...this post is going to be a bit different from the others. To see how, read on:
Well, the first and foremost thing is this blog is going to be about this really great friend of mine who has some weird issues with life!! Imagine that! Anyways, this female has been going through a lotta shit since the last two months and is practically nearing an emotional breakdown!! Nope, sorry can't mention her name. Hell, she doesn't even know am writing this...She would kill me!!
The thing is, for the last one month she's lost. No, I don't mean, lost her way to the hostel and is lying in some jungle hungry and scared( like Hansel and Gretel)!! That would be too fairy-tale like!! Anyways, first she gave up something she liked; well she thought she liked and that was the beginning of her nemesis. Then her friends started dumping on her in the name of 'ragging' and having fun at her expense(crazy reason to take one's life, don't you think so!!) and one of them has been grilling her to make her realize her own true self; he did it for her good but now she's shocked at herself...She has thought about this a lot( she thinks a lot and no matter what the circumstance, that's one thing no-one can take away from her; apart from her self-respect) and she is really scared... of discovering herself!! She is paranoid that she will find herself to be no different from Them; the conformists!! I tell her that, no way is she gonna end up like them, you can't suddenly join the society after being an outcast for 15 years!! It's not humanely possible!! And she what do I receive after all my advice?? A tight punch and whole map of suicidal plans!! Imagine that. So, here I am, holding my bleeding nose and wounded dignity trying to figure out how to stop that chick from taking her own life!!
Someone, please call 911!!
Till now, I thought she had it all figured out about what sort of a woman she wanted to be; balanced and whole. But after these few days, its made me realize that nothing and I mean nothing ever works out the way we want it to... But I really don't think suicide is the answer. It just makes you think that the other person was not strong enough to handle life.
But what if the person has seen enough and cannot take it anymore?? Is suicide justifiable in that case??
