In "The First Phone Call from Heaven" by Mitch Albom, a poignant reflection emerges about the bond between two sisters. Katherine contemplates the profound love her older sister possessed, characterized by a big heart that generously embraced others. This heartfelt nature ultimately leads Katherine to connect her sister’s tragic fate to the very essence of her caring personality.

The idea that such a vibrant and loving spirit could face the ultimate consequence prompts a deeper exploration of love and loss. Katherine’s reasoning serves as a powerful reminder of the complexities of affection and the vulnerabilities it can bring, particularly when one is deeply invested in the lives of others.

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.
