The Horror of Suicide
Years ago when I was in high school, my friend’s mom called and asked if we had seen her. We said we hadn’t and she told us her dad had just shot himself. I was so upset and ran through our neighborhood to find her. It turned out she had gone back to her house and the scene was just awful. That’s the second person I’ve known to commit suicide and it was devastating. After that, I hid my exmormon dad’s gun because he was depressed. He felt loved, but he wanted to go to the shooting range and my exmormon dad asked for his gun back. I told him no because I was freaked out.
