throwing yourself under a semi truck
would be ultra messy
jumping in front of a train
likewise
trying to overdose
you might live
and be paralyzed
these and a myriad other
ways to take the easy way out
have possible problems
I guess it makes more sense
to just to keep on keeping on
I wonder

I think the same, Jerry
To much fuss with self-killing (if it's not a performance) and no guarantee. As to me even no hope.

Suicide is one way out of trouble, strife, and pain and regret, Gale. Thanks . . .

A lovely simple advice to boost morale
It is better if we wait with true hope
God will surely bring a favorable change
Waiting for that is the very best option.

Suicide is generally considered to be a very selfish act. Unless there is extreme physical pain involved, it is incomprehensible to others. Checking out early because you are tired of the game is generally frowned upon. I would think you want to go out with a bang or die trying (and I'm not talking about a gun. heh,heh)
