    The lens we use to view an event or object is our choice but without viewing something from all angles we deprive ourselves.TheMadFool

    However, the "views" in this case do not necessarily come down to a choice between merely two options, such as "brave" to commit suicide or "coward" to have committed suicide.

    Sickness happens. It is less inescapable than taxes. The brain is an organ and like other organs of the body is subject to fatigue and un-wellness.

    Drug addiction, for example, is not generally considered to have been constructed by "reasoned" means and so often leads to the sickness of desperation and despair. Very high incidences of drug addiction related to pain control for terrible accidental injuries.

    It maybe time to get real, MadFool. Maybe you are quite young and yet to feel great pressures of life either from responsibilities or aging.

    And in the final analysis we don't even no what "death" is. It is not something we have experienced and it is not something we will get a report on from a dead person.
