Sometimes I wonder if anyone would care if I died. I stare at a blank wall with a knife in my hand. My mind screams cut! But my heart says put the knife down. I shiver as the cold knife touches my bare skin on my wrist. I feel a shock go down my back. I can't do it, I tell myself. I slowly take the knife away. No one cares! My mind screams at me. I slowly put the knife back on my wrist. Then I start thinking about all my good memories with friends and family. If I was gone, there would be anymore good memories to make. I drop the knife. I run. I don't stop. I run for miles, just to be alone. I promised myself I would never do anything stupid and reckless like try to commit suicide. God gave up his life for you, you can't just give up your life like that. You didn't live your life all these years to just throw it away.
*Over a million human beings commit suicide every year.*
Most suicides are because of problems at home or bullying.
Through mercy and compassion we can all stop the suffering.
