It takes a great deal of courage to pull a gun trigger to one’s own head. In fact, it takes a great deal of stamina to even pull a trigger on someone else.

Self-love has a great deal to do with this and what you said was absolutely correct. Thank you for the post and for honoring your “word ” to write about this legendary loss. I was reflecting and thinking if he’s 70* then many of those who passed away due to this horrible pandemic were probably his peers.

So many seniors are finding themselves “lost,”. I took my mom to the park during the pandemic just for her to get some air, get her feet on the ground and see “color” beyond the four walls There was a little girl on her bicycle and she was in awe seeing my senor white hair silver head in a wheelchair lady in the park. the little girl stopped the bicycle and she almost wanted to reach out and hug my mom.

They locked eyes. Now here’s the saddest part, my mom’s grandchildren and now great grandchildren won’t call, write, send a card or even do a video call or visit. See how that works. I’m the bad cop for begging for it.

Let us just pray that he, Mr. Don Cornelius, may have known The Lord Jesus.

Amen.

I didn’t follow him but what you are saying makes sense if this indeed was the case.
