My darling lady love, Renee, volunteers for an organization called
the Samaritans that runs a 24-7 suicide prevention helpline. This fall, she's participating in
a fundraising run/walk for the organization and is
asking for donations in honor of a friend of hers who committed suicide four years ago.
I can't wrap my mind around the idea of suicide, which I suppose is a good thing, but it makes it hard to empathize with people who might be feeling suicidal. I'm glad there are people in the world like Renee and the other folks at the Samaritans who can do what I can't, and reach out and offer emotional support to those in need.
If you're moved at all by her story about Carl, please
give what you can, any amount helps. Thank you!
