I'm going to be okay. His eyes held mine as he stepped closer lining his booted feet with mine.Nothing is going to happen to me. I promise.You can't make that promise, I whispered, searching his gaze intently.None of us can. His hands slid back and he curled his fingers in my loose hair. I can.

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.
