I have heard this song before I seen the video so when I hit the play button I so excited to hear it and bob my head. Once it got mid song the video brought out some different emotions, then once it got to the end of the song it brought out some even stronger emotions. I quit bobbing my head and actually started crying. I am a very emotional person so this is not unusual for me, but it did catch me off guard.
Living in Colorado we are no strangers to suicide we rank number 6 on the list of most suicides in the United States. I personally knew 3 people that committed suicide and about 5 more people that were family of family and friends of my family, so it really hit home.
Suicide is nothing new it has been going on since the beginning of time. My cousins cousin committed suicide back in the 90's because of her weight it had nothing to do with sexuality she was being teased because of her size and she felt this was the only way out and she took her own life.
I had a friend in the early 2000's that had just proposed to his long time girlfriend and they had a son we had just seen them in the mall shopping. Within months he decided he didn't want to live anymore and he took his own life with a gun.
This is just a couple of the many stories of suicide I could tell.
God bless ya life.
Peace.
