Have you noticed that suicide has become the new way to be "friended" and to get a "like" and a "thumbs up"?
It's an action that demands a "celebration of life" ceremony anymore.
It's referred to as a "passing" or just a simple the "died".
They are mourned as leaving us too soon.
It is no longer an act of violence against humanity.
It is not something to be prevented.
It is simply the beginning of a person's legacy, especially if you are a celebrity. It is the their future entertainment value or artistry that they would have provide us and that we are being denied.
But we understand. It's just another grand way to take a final bow.
And we applaud you off the stage.
We will provide the encore from here on out.
