Someone died today

In our apartment block or in the car park. He jumped to his death. I don’t know anymore than that and neither will most other people as suicides don’t make the news and probably rightly so. However I haven’t stopped thinking about him and also his family. I was leaving for work when I noticed the Garda tape across the car park entrance which the Garda had to move to let me out. A woman trying to get in to get her car asked me had I not seen him. I hadn’t. I feel sorry for those who did find him and sadder still that he felt he had to do what he did.
Such a sad thing. I agree, it’s probably best these things aren’t highlighted in the news. The more common it is seen in the media, the more people will see it as a legitimate option.
Coincidentally, we’re talking about the topic on ForNinePounds at the moment, if you’re interested.
