What do you do when the meaning of love has gone astray? When hope leaves your doorstep? When life has no purpose to you? What do you do?

Do you cut yourself away from civilization? Do you take a nightly trip to the shower to meet your best friend the razor? Do you change how you act, think, look to make others accept you? Do you go to your outdoor pool to take your last swim? Do you take meds and pain killers to make the problems go away for good?  Do you take that final step with the noose being tight? Or do you drink your problems gone? What do you do?

I don't know what you do. But you do. And so do your friends. Just because you conceive in your mind life hasd no purpose does not mean that it is true. When you do drink, smoke, self-injure, or any form of suicide, you affect not only yourself, but the ones who love you as well. Your friends. Your family. You affect them more than you realize. More than you could ever imagine.
