Zo,
Your post is very poignant.would it have lessened the impact of someone's death by their own hand to see the aftermath? Possibly not pushing you over the edge. To read and realize how much people cared, to see the pain that rumbled through the community, to understand in a more personal way how far reaching suicide is, how important our touch may be to someone?
And, even, to think to yourself..."Why Sar? No, she was wonderful! How could she want to do away with her sweet, generous self?" And maybe question your own impulses in that light?
I'm just wondering, because I can personally relate to what you wrote, yet what happened after Sar's death I saw as an affirmation of the importance of life.
