Having turned my Will and my LIFE over to the care of the God of my understanding...the ideation and impulse to self-terminate is lifted.
Suicide is the ultimate act of arrogance. This life is not of my creation, and I have returned it's use to it's Creator, therefore it is not mine to terminate.
Hey Rob, amen brother,,when 'WE" make the decison,not the substance,the family,the courts,the Noise in our heads etc, and we allow that Higher Power to take care of the results, things sure do look different huh!! Good seeing you back here man.....

Good step work Rob...Suicide is also evidence of self will run riot. When I was there I didn't moralize it, couldn't rationalize it and only wanted the insane yelling and confusion in my head to exit stage left. I committed a "successful" suicide by not ending my life but ending how I lived it. I get to have one and be a part of it now and be happy, joyous and free as a continuing condition.
