He was so accustomed to being correct in his judgments. Had he been spared the smaller mistakes in life only to make the biggest one at the end?
by Mitch Albom
(0 Reviews)

The quote expresses a deep introspection about the nature of judgment and the weight of personal choices. It reflects on the idea that a person, who often feels confident in their decisions, may find themselves at a crossroads where their most significant choice is the most flawed. This dilemma highlights the irony of life, where smaller errors can be overshadowed by a critical misstep later on.

This contemplation invites readers to consider the complexities of decision-making and the possibility of being misled by a false sense of certainty. Ultimately, it serves as a reminder that wisdom does not guarantee infallibility, and that even the most judicious individuals can falter when faced with life's profound challenges.

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.

You say you're 'depressed' - all i see is resilience. You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.
