This post is my ideology on “Suicide” , a grave issue in colleges these days , and people who are sensitive to the issue ….. its not for you,
- Rat-Race :
In this capitalist world, we believe anyone can achieve success in life by sheer will and labor, most of us dream to attain big. And work day in day out to achieve it .
In the long run, wear ourselves out, set emotions to less priority and then become quite insensitive to our environments. We risk relationships, family for career. Is the outcome as rosy as we dream ?? ………….Not always
But when even after all this we fail to achieve our goal, we decide to end all this. - Atheism :
When somebody rejects the existence of God, he sees himself as the sole creator and destroyer of his fortune. It does give us some control over us, but when something terrible happens or calamity strikes, we just give up …believing its beyond our means as humans to endure such pain.When we are connected to God, we see him as savior in dark days, We complain to him for our misfortunes and expect change to come sooner or later… Thus I feel religion has soothed many, who had no one to support them when they were helpless. - ConsciousnessWhy do people celebrate martyrs, the brave who die during wars? Do animals do so ?? most of us would love dying as a hero than live a meaningless life.We as humans have conditioned ourselves to celebrate death, an outcome that less intelligent animals could not find yet. Something very unlikely indeed, even animals too have terrible conditions, all they do is cry out .
So, I see suicide as a outcome of deep fear of the society we live in, a battle where our conscience wins over our evolution ….
Whenever we see something happening as rational beings we contemplate and seek an explanation for it. However hard I try I can never reason out one thing that leads to suicides .....
