“Preacher who says that the sweet life is made from bitter parts is more or less telling those who have come to mourn the teenage suicide that this is just one bitter ingredient in the sweet thing foreordained by the benevolent god. To which I want to shake my fist and say: There is not one sweet thing about it. It is only bitter.” WantMadeLife IsSweetSuicideBitterJust OneShakesIngredientsPreacherTeenageFistsMournBenevolentSweet LifeSweet Things Author:Kyle Minor
“The idea of suicide, understandable as it is, does not seem commendable to me. We live in order to gain the greatest possible amount of spiritual development and self-awareness. As long as life is possible, even if only in a minimal degree, you should hang onto it, in order to scoop it up for the purpose of conscious development. To interrupt life before its time is to bring to a standstill an experiment which we have not set up. We have found ourselves in the midst of it and must carry it through to the end.” IfsShouldLongDoeIdeasEndsSelfSeemsSpiritualLife IsPurposeOrderFoundAwarenessDevelopmentAmountDegreesConsciousGainsSelf AwarenessSuicideExperimentsMidstSpiritual DevelopmentStandstillCommendable Author:Carl Jung
“It isn't possible to kill part of your “self” unless you kill yourself first. If you ruin your conscious personality, the so-called ego-personality, you deprive the self of its real goal, namely to become real itself. The goal of life is the realization of the self. If you kill yourself you abolish that will of the self to become real, but it may arrest your personal development inasmuch it is not explained. You ought to realise that suicide is murder, since after suicide there remains a corpse exactly as with any ordinary murder. Only it is yourself that has been killed.” IfsFirstsMayHas BeensRealSelfLife IsGoalPersonalityDevelopmentOughtEgoOrdinaryConsciousMurderRemainsSuicidePersonal DevelopmentRuinsRealizationRealisingCorpsesAbolishLife GoalKilling Yourself Author:Carl Jung
