Life

What is life? An age-old question many of us find ourselves asking. Some hold it in high regard, while others simply see it as a deity's way of making their subjects suffer. They are many ways to question life, so when will it become socially acceptable for people to stop being judged for their own personal outlooks on life. The concept of life is subjective, so like any other subjective topic, others shouldn't be held to the same standard regarding personal value.

When I say held to the same standard, I'm not referring to how others view the life of those around them, but rather how an individual may view their own life. When a person wants to end their life or mentions the very thought to another individual the first thing they are usually asked, is "why are you being so selfish".While I understand that suicide is a major issue in today's society and that mental unhealth is becoming much more prevalent, my focus isn't on those concepts. My focus regards something I call accomplished suicide.

Accomplished suicide, is the act of commiting suicide based on the idea that you have accomplished everything you wanted to in life, effectively creating a feeling of accomplishment and making an individual feel like their life is completed. No mental unrest, just the pure thought that your life is completed.

Many may say there is no way to complete life, but if that's the case then why go navigate it in the first place. Is life just a series of experiences until we reach our inevitable end, then what makes me unwell for wanting to end my experiences early?

I'm not sure who will read this, but I want to say it here. Life is what you make of it, it's the earliest subjective concept ever created.
