What drives a person to take their own life?.. What thoughts are so dire that the only way out is death?
A friend has passed by his own hands and those left behind cannot understand, what was so bad, that talking and or prayer could not have saved a life….

Not, How Did He Die, But How Did He Live – Author Unknown
Not how did he die, but how did he live?
