In San Francisco - life goes on. Hope rises and dreams flicker and die. Love plans for tomorrow and loneliness thinks of yesterday. Life is beautiful and living is pain. The sound of music floats down a dark street. A young girl looks out a window and wishes she were married. A drunk sleeps under a bridge. It is tomorrow.

In San Francisco, life unfolds with its dualities; hope thrives amidst the ebb and flow of dreams, some flourishing while others fade away. People navigate through love and loneliness, each reflecting on their past and future. The beauty of life intertwines with the pain of existence, hinting at the complexities within the city.

The vibrant sounds of music echo through dimly lit streets, painting a vivid picture of urban life. A young girl gazes longingly from her window, yearning for companionship, while the harsh reality of a drunk person sleeping under a bridge underscores the stark contrasts in society. Such scenes capture the essence of life as it continues to evolve each day.

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.

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.
