This weekend, I am going to a memorial for a friend's husband who committed suicide. Clearly, this was a traumatic event for her and her children.
The guy who killed himself was a difficult man. He was plagued by many demons and he acted out in ways that caused harm to those he claimed he loved. Yet, I can still grieve for a man who suffered so much in his life. I can grieve that the best way for him to deal with his demons was to hurt others and himself. I can grieve for him because he was not able to find peace or serenity in his earthly life.
