Just a few thoughts: 1. You have no right to say that somebody who commits suicide is weak or a coward. You havent walked a mile in their shoes, youve never been inside their mind. To say that they are weak or a coward is such a form of egocentric arrogance that it makes me sick. Ill tell you this, when I didnt pull the trigger, it wasnt because I was strong or brave, it was because I was too afraid to. Take that however you want. 2. I know that a large number of people die everyday and every death is sad, but its just not realistic to expect everybody to mourn everybodys death. If we did that we would never not be in mourning and life is too short to be in a permanent state of mourning. Also, its just ridiculous to expect people who have never been affected by somebody to mourn their death. I dont expect somebody in Dubai that Ive never met before and doesnt even know I exist to mourn me. This may be harsh and this may be cruel, but none of us are deserving of everybodys thoughts and mourning. 3. If you think its more important to focus on all the other bad things going on in the world, keep it to yourself. Later this week those bad things will still be there, but a person who actually shed a little light for millions of people in a world that needs that light so much wont be. 4. If youre tired of seeing posts about Robin Williams, keep it to yourself. The fact that all these people have felt a loss over his passing yet you think that they should stop because youre tired of seeing it goes back to that egocentric arrogance I talked about earlier. Nothing Ive said here warrants your criticism. If it pisses you off and you feel the need to say something, dont, because I will delete the comments. Just know that if this pisses you off, perhaps you should take a long look in the mirror.
