What is your view on suicide? Is it wrong or right? Do we have the right to end our lives?
This is definitely an interesting question. I don't think we have the right to end our lives. My culture says that we take several births before to reach the human birth. Every birth we make ourselves better in order to reach human birth. It is something like a gift given to us to understand the purpose of our existence. If we waste it by suicide we will again end up taking another birth and undergo the same process again. These are some thoughts from my culture's perspective.
I personally feel that death is not going to be the solution to our problems. Every individual should build self-confidence. Without self-confidence, we will not be able to do anything in this world. If we are thinking we have lots of problems, we have to have a look at so many people out there with enough problems. If people think about suicide just because they have problems in their life, the world will literally be empty.
In order to stay strong in life, every individual should always do a self-evaluation. Every problem will definitely have a solution and ending our life is definitely not the solution.
I would like to give an answer in a philosophical point of view. Every living being in this world is an individual being. We are not born here with a dependency on others. Most of the sorrow that we get in our life is due to an external factor. If we think that we are individual beings and no external factors can affect our emotions, we get a great strength to sustain a meaningful life.
To conclude, suicide is not always an option. Every person who looks forward to suicide lack a few mins of thinking. Suicide is something that emerges spontaneously. If they decide to overcome that particular situation, then they will regret thinking about suicide at a later point in time.
Life is to live, enjoy and let live. Spreading love without expecting anything in return will help us sustain any problem in life.
