    I have not seen the film yet, but it all became a bit more real for me after my wife received a call Friday night that her cousin had commited suicide. We all know she was suffering from a lot of physical and psychological pain, but suicide is something I cannot wrap my head around. Maybe watching this movie will help me understand.

            The scary part is you can’t see how bad someone’s mental pain is from the outside, unless you are a professional trained to know the signs, but maybe not even then? Sending Metta and sitting for all those suffering. I will also try extra hard to remember that many of the people I interact with every day could be suffering way more than anyone can see.

              This is true. I had been thinking about the immense pressure on Nemoto as he spoke to the people who reach out to him for help. I can't imagine the pressure to say the right thing as these people grapple with whether they want to live or not.

              But then, tonight I was thinking, how is this really different from any conversation we may have? We don't know where peoples' hearts are. We don't know what they are struggling with. Neither to they know our own struggles. So the need to be attentive and consider our words in any conversation is potentially no different then the heightened situations Nemoto finds himself in.

                Hi all,

                I have been searching for a site to download or rent, but unfortunately it is not available in Europe... Unless I look in the wrong places. Amazon and iTunes do not have it in Europe
                Does anybody know of an other way?

                      Vudu. Is not accessable in Spain and VPN seems like ilegal here...
