    Wow… The stories a person’s iTunes music playlist tells… When a lifetime of clues and hints and flashing lights aren’t enough, you sometimes need to hit a brick wall – or visit hell.

    • Tragic Loss

    I have found several things disturbing and upsetting lately, one of which was the suicide of someone I knew and went to school with – a husband and father of two. There were hundreds of people at his wake. It makes we wonder where everybody was before. I doubt his unbearable stress began all of a sudden. I know what it is like to feel like nobody likes me or nobody cares. I don’t know what was going on, although I heard he had been on an anti-depressant which makes me wish charges could be laid against the MD. The family has to keep going, blaming themselves, suffering the pain, asking “what if”, trying to let the Lord carry it for them. Very, very sad.

      I remember many years ago my grandmother literally “wailed” upon hearing of the tragic death of her son by a car accident. However, never have I seen such inconsolable grief as the mother of this young man was suffering last weekend.
      It must be similar to the anguish faced by many women who have submitted to abortion.
      How very, very sad!

      I think the family members that could release their grief and pain will cope better down the road. Grieving helps with the healing.
