The Fundamental Element of Being Human

The most fundamental element of being human is that we can contemplate suicide. We are the only creature that we know of that can consider their own death as a possibility. We are the only beings that suffer enough that consider death a solution. I ask as all now to now longer view suicide so negatively. It to all of us even in the most remote sense is possibility. it could be what you do at the end of the day. The fact that this is possible for us affords one thing. That every day we live is the promise of it. That it can be glorious. That it worth living despite suffering. We not only can choose. But we do choose to live. To feel. And also imagine a greater world.
