Dear friends, I am inclined to tell you a story that is most confidential. So with that being said, I must change all names for this circumstance. Later on this evening, I had this person come up to me with a concern. We will call her Clara so her identity will be secured. Clara told me that she will be committing suicide in exactly two hours. Knowing this, I was taken aback, and half-ly doubting that this event would be happening tonight. I tried my hardest to to help her, and listen to her problems. Trying to tell her that THAT permanent solution was going to end up in more heartache even after death. Then Clara burst into tears, which ultimately made me cry to know that a dearest friend was in pain, and couldn't see the light at the end of the problem.. That she didn't know with every problem comes growth, maturity, and healing. I wanted to shake her, try to wake her up from this nonsense. But instead compassion overtook me, and I hugged her with all my might. We sat together in silence until our tears ran dry. I left her on good-notes, or so I assumed. We bated our goodbyes....
Later on, I received a phone call.... From Clara's parents... I'm sure, you can figure out the rest.
Goodnight,
My fellow readers,
And goodnight Clara, to which you found YOUR peace, and left me and your family in misery..
Sincerely Stacy...
