I read the paper today and liked Chetan Bhagat's article.
As someone who has gone through similar phases in my life, and have tried something as dramatic as jumping in front of a train at one point of time, I found the article to make a lot of sense. It's amazing how animals don't have an idea of suicide. At least it hasn't been shown yet. Yes, I know there's some kind of hampster or lemming or something which jumps into the ocean somewhere in the world in herds, but then no one knows why they do that. Certainly not to get rid of life's worries.
It's quite intriguing what drives someone to the brink; that makes one take the step of killing oneself. In hindsight, I can't remember what made me think of it.
Even the Terminator said 'I cannot self Terminate'. Why us ?

Pablo,
refer to your earleir rant about your job - here's a post from my blog by Yves Saint Laurent, that'll urge you to hang in there......Do great things!!!
THE GREAT ART IS TO LAST...
Finding your own style is not easy, but once found, it brings complete hapiness. It gives you self-confidence always.
After so many years of exploring, my art still fascinates me. I know no greater exaltation. You think there is no further, that everything is forever fixed and finished - and then, suddenly depths and vistas reveal themselves, that you thought are out of reach and that your wealth of experience now fully opens to you. So many times did I believe myself impotent, broken and desperate before the black curtain of weariness - and so many times did this curtain then rip itself apart to allow glimpses of limitless horizons, enabling me to feel my greatest joys, and I dare to say, moments of true pride. The great art, Prince Metternich said, is to last.
-- Yves Saint Laurent

I have tried it myself....
By driving rash and trying to hit a truck...but slowed down the last moment since I knew it wasn't worth the effort...
I don't regret my actions....
