Sadness

Oh, hi, Internet! Remember me? Yes, I know, I know...it's been a long time, right? To say that the past month has been trying is a magnificent understatement; however, enumerating each of my "woes" isn't going to help one bit, so I rather not waste my barely there typing skills on that. But please bear with me as I'm going to relate something depressing. You see, a cousin of a cousin committed suicide by hanging himself last weekend. I don't know if it's because I was already in a bad place before hearing the news [key in ominous music: there was client feedback], but it really made me feel immensely sad...who wouldn't? I barely knew him...come to think of it, I'm not even sure of his name. It's just that hearing such a manner of death staggers me. To think, to feel, to believe that everything is hopeless, that death is preferable, nay, the best recourse is just so...SAD. I can't even begin to think what his parents are feeling right now. I don't really know why he did what he did, although my mom mentioned something about the bank taking their house and the rest of their properties and surely this kind of hopelessness is enough to push someone to suicide, all I can hope and pray is that he's in a better place right now and that his family will someday forget the pain.
