son: why are so many people nowadays doing harakiri?

father: Adrian: doing harakiri is not a joke; it means committing suicide. As to why people do such a rash and irrational act, G-d only knows. It's probably because they have reached a point in their existence where they don't know what to do. They can't even find G-d's eternal mercy in a religious setting and they don't understand that there's always hope for a recovery if you are not mentally ill, no matter how hopeless the situation may be. But who cares, because mentally ill people can't make the rational choice to commit suicide.

Get the doing harakiri mug.
the act of committing suicide (using any method except the real harakiri, the actual Japanese ritual form of suicide by disembowelment often used historically by the samurai).
son: why are so many people nowadays doing harakiri?

father: Adrian, why people commit such acts is probably because they can't find life's meaning in any setting, religious or secular. However, you can always pull the roasted chestnuts out of the fire. Don't burn your bridges is the sole piece of advice I would give these people.

son: so, what do we tell a person about to commit suicide? "don't burn your bridges"? and that they should stop rejecting the help that they deserve?

father: yup.
