Would it be very bad taste to think about a monument for those of us clusterheads who took their own life because nobody could take away their pain, or again because nobody cared or believed them?
Does somebody here own a prominent piece of land? Is somebody here the kind of sculpting artist who could put this together?
Or an electronic monument maybe, a webpage with a sober, well written dedication, an honour roll of names...
I say honour roll advisedly; for me there is no shame in taking one's own life, not under such extreme circumstances.
There have been others; it would hurt, but it would be a good thing if they also were remembered.
If it is a stupid idea I'm sure you will tell me.
Walk in beauty, annemarie
