A boy of 12 began a desperate race to save his mother after finding a suicide note at their home, I AM GOING SOON.
This boy sped to the railway station on his bike, and he saw his mother walking on a railway track.. he pleaded his mom to get of the track,..for the sake of his two sisters.. the women heeded to the request and got of the track.. and was on her way to safety..and in the process.. the second train hit her..
This boy, Jordan Sped,saw his mother Vernoica Bell dying...So.. sad..

The thought of giving up the life..be it anything .. i don't believe that there are no problems in the world that are so rigid and that which man cannot face. After all it we invited the problem in some way or other.
Expecting the life to be always on the smooth path..without any kind of hiccups is absurd, and this is my feeling. What's is your stand on this friends?

I have been through alot in my life. I have often not wanted to live and go through all of the bad things anymore also. I have not tried to take my life though. I just try to work through it and pray to God to help me get through things. I always manage to come through somehow with his help. Prayer goes a long ways even when you think it won't or doesn't.

Hi stephcjh, i think that is the spirit with which one should march on,like you.. and surely prayers could do miracles.. and i believe prayers needs no verses or books that needs to be chanted.. but a pure heart..with undivided attention towards the supreme.

This is really sad. Although in life we all have problems. I have thought of killing myself when I was a teenager. Now I know I was crazy to think that way. Espically after finding out that I have multiple sclrosis now that I am a adult. It caused me to have a lot of problems at first . God has helped me through a lot of problems though that I have dealt with. You are right about not expecting life to always be smooth. At the same time we are all born for a reason.

That poor boy, I feel so sorry for him to have seen this happen to his mother. I hope he gets counseling, such an awful thing for him to see.

Hi saivenkaat802003! Oh that is sad! My heart is crying for that boy. It is heartbreaking to hear stories like this. I do agree with you that expecting life to run smooth always and with no hurdles is absurd. Although, I wish for that most of the time. I guess people react differently when confronted with problems, trials and frustrations. Some will face the problem head-on and look for solutions and will never stop until they find ways how to resolve it and others just simply give up. And to those who simply give up, I pray that someone or something can lift them up in their time of weakness. This is really sad and I just hope and pray that the boy will recover from the trauma of seeing her mother die that way.
Take care and God Bless!

Hello saivenkaat802003,
What a crying shame to have happened and also for the boy as it will stay with him for the rest of his life and that will be another problem that he will carry its a circle. I agree with you, if people make problem for you, you get out and you don't have to creat your own problems and if you do why can.t you sort it out? there must have something that she couldn' handle because some people are very weak and its not their fault, but my heart goes to this boy.

As I read this discussion I was hit hard just from the thought that she was walking off the tracks but didn't notice the other train coming. I now the young man was so hurt that he say that and tried to stop what happened. Now he will feel that to some degree that he was the cause of her getting hit by the train. Then in a way he saved her life and then fate it was taken anyway. I know that really was a shocker and words can't heal wounds like that. Have a good one.
