I learned something new at lunch today. Right after Michael died, Mr.Alffe discussed getting therapy with his good friend who is/was a counselor and he told him. "Don't demean it. It is, what it is and nothing will change it."

So I looked up the word demean and it said "to lower it in dignity or standing".

Dignity????? Standing?? as in Michael was making a statement??
I don't understand how he could have said that...I just don't get it!

Ok...I am as tired of talking about me as you all must be of hearing it!!

Hugs for the room...I'm taking a break.
without knowing the guy...i can't say for sure what he meant.

michaels suicide was an impulsive action.

maybe he meant that michaels pain at that very moment was so great....that no matter what is said...no matter how hard everyone would try and make sense of it...( and i know you can't) would demean michaels life. his death is also part of his life. part of the whole package.

my brain is foggy dear alffe. i can't tell if i am getting across what i mean.
