We walk – or shuffled along – about a yard and then I walked straight into a mailbox. I grunted. Son of a bitch jumped right out in front of me! Kyler stopped, shaking his head. You are a hazard to yourself right now. I'm fine. I waved him off, edging around the tricky inanimate object as I shot it a dark look. I'm watching you.

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.
