In her book "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway," Susan Jeffers discusses the transformative power of facing challenges. Every time we confront a situation that requires us to manage it, our confidence grows. This process helps us develop trust in our own resilience, reinforcing the belief that we can withstand whatever life throws at us.

As we become more adept at handling difficulties, our fears begin to lessen significantly. Jeffers emphasizes that embracing challenges is crucial for personal growth, as it empowers us to take action and foster positive emotions. By navigating through fear instead of avoiding it, we can turn our uncertainties into opportunities for strength and fulfillment.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
