Cause of death was Suicide, they say!
So for today:
I
read a tragic story this week. A
beautiful successful lady of 32 committed suicide in a unique way, by sky
diving. She had over 500 jumps with no
problems, then after a ‘love’ break up she no longer wanted to live. She made her regular jump, and 60 seconds later hit the
ground with out deploying her chutes.
After investigations everything in
her equipment was in perfect order, reg
chute and emergency chute were in perfect condition. It was obvious she had not
tried to pull euther cord to open any chute.
WE all knew the famous Robin Williams, I was shocked to hear of his
suicide, why would a person who had the world by the tail take his life. We
learned later it was a mental disease.
Then there was Cheslie Krist, Miss NC
who was crowned Miss USA. Later the headlines read:
Woman
who jumped from NYC high-rise identified as Miss USA 2019 Cheslie Kryst
If I am not mistaken Cheslie a beautiful black lady also
had an earned doctorate.
No matter your
beauty, education or success, common
folk DO NOT understand when a seemingly super successful individual takes their
own life.
It is not too smart to ask but have you ever
considered ending this life? No need to
answer,
For years I thought it was normal. I have thought of it many times. Never serious enough to do it of course, or
some other fool would be here typing. LOL
But in truth I have thought of it. One shot and all problems are gone
(that is not taking in consideration the afterlife of course.) ;-)
WE have dear
kin and friends who have and are experiencing full blown Alzheimer’s. I tell Sherry they have it made. They do not
have problems; their memory is wiped out. It does bother friends and kin much
more than it does them.
I must tell you, it is disheartening, even devastating,
when a close friend looks at you and asks, “Now, who are you?”
That blows your mind and makes Alzheimer’s REAL.

PS:
AGAIN THANKS for
reading the Shipslog. I sure do
appreciate you folks who take time to
read this stuff. Some of it serious,
some, like my mama said, ‘that’s a story!’
LOL

You covered two very difficult subjects to understand fully. When there is no hope, a subject you mentioned yesterday, people cannot see a way out of their situation. They are vulnerable to all sorts of fears, worries, panics and negative emotions. No one in his right mind has ever taken his own life. It is not a calculated and pre-planned action.
As for Alzheimer's disease it seems to be more kind towards the victims than those left to care for them. As one's mental capacity fades away a little at a time, people die over and over again day after day.
Let us pray for those contemplating suicide and for victims of such terrible terminal diseases.
God bless.
