“My view on suicide? Don’t do it. Yes, you were born into a heartless and very stressful society. Yes, the world’s a mess and you may feel the full impact of it. Yet, you can make a plan to exit this rat-race without ending your life. So what if people will say that you’ve become a travelling hippie, living from hand to mouth, or playing your guitar for a few coins, like I did for quite a while. That’s still so much better than killing yourself. After all, you are not trying to save your reputation, but you’re trying to preserve your own very precious life and sanity.”
