Thank you, Mike. Very profound thoughts they are indeed. Regarding views on suicide - for some, suicidal ideation is the only way the know to deal with their emotions... It becomes like an addiction, like an alcohol (an alcoholic can not contain his/her emotions w/o the substance and reaches out for the drink.). Having this suicidal addiction does not preclude one form having meaning in life, it's just having that meaning might not be enough of the coping mechanism by itself.
Loved the Woody Allen clip :)
