Suicide.

Guess what Mr.Vilasrao Dadoji Deshmukh, Chief Minister of Maharashtra, replied when journalists asked him about the death toll of farmers? He said that even though suicide is a legal offence, no farmer was apprehended on this charge. But nobody noticed the government's generosity. Great. Simply great. How could we have ever missed this Great-heartiness?

Suicide came from a Latin word suicidium meaning killing oneself. A person commits suicide when he depicts that death is more comfortable than life. It is not easy to kill oneself. It requires lot of valor. If the same mettle could be used in life to find solace, there won't be any suicides. There can be many causes for a suicide. Psychological, environmental, terrorism, extreme nationalism and Euthanasia . People say that best way to suicide is poisoning oneself. The best poisons are cyanide and endrine. Cyanide is hard to get. Often males attempt successful suicides while female methods are failure prone. Some people write a suicide note and some do not. Some people see suicide as a human right. ( The "right to die"). There are even suicide spots like the suicide bridge in London.

I wonder how death would be. What will it be like? What will people think just before their death? No one knows what happens after death.
I happened to see a website called suicide.org. I wonder to what extent it can help people.
