It’s in the news today.
A study shows that more than 1 million deaths annually are caused by suicides and have increased by 60% in the past 50 years.
It is staggering and at a really worrisome stage.
It would take a decisive effort from each countries government to implement measures to curb this trend.
But we can do our humble share to help reverse this hopelessness in many people.
Start with ourselves and make the commitment to never take that path where God’s love terribly lost.
Believe that God meant everything for good no matter how hard the present situation is.
Then look at your family foremost and at the people around you.
Support one another.
Lend a helping hand.
Be a listening ear.
Offer well-meaning advices.
Uplift the spirit of the people around us.
Encourage to do better.
Focus on their strengths.
Be deliberate in saying kind and thoughtful words.
Even if a person is unlovable, make the sacrificial gesture of being good and kind to that person.
It is not hypocrisy to do that.
It is love.
Our Lord did not come into the world for the righteous but for the sinners to feel that they are also loved.
So let us all be God’s extension in loving others.
Let us share hope to other people that life has a meaning and purpose worth living for.
God bless us all.
