At a dinner party, one of the (married) women mentioned in an offhand way how she thinks about driving into the river sometimes when she's on Marine Drive. Lots of other people (mostly the women) said they do the same thing. That was an eye opener.
I don't do that, but I do think of hypothetical scenarios: What would be the least messy, least painful, etc. . .,
I also think of my dad, now a permanent invalid in a nursing home and I tell myself no way. Electronic Morphine drip, please. I'll do the rest.
(This is a very cathartic thread, too - thanks!)
