MT. FUJI-- WHERE TEENS CONSPIRE TO KILL THEMSELVES. OR NOT

[chibiporkchop]

Meron kayang travelers na hindi naman sinasadyang magcommit ng suicide dun? According to the article, the magnetic deposits of iron causes the compasses and GPS devices to malfunction. Baka there are forces inside that forest that mess with the minds of those who travel in there, making them want to commit suicide than get lost. Just stating a possibility.

Oh Lord. I pity them so much, hindi man lang nila naexperience to live life "to the fullest".

truth is that when a society becomes so materialistc due to high technology and industrialization, there rises a tendency to make human life cheap.

Agree! Kumbaga parang wala tayong kakontentuhan sa buhay, na puro materyal na bagay na lang minsan ang nagiging senyales ng katayuan naten sa buhay, kung anu na ba ang narating naten.

Nakakalungkot at nakakaiyak isipin na sa panahon ngayon may tao naglalakas loob na bawiin ang sarili nilang buhay, kumbaga isa lang ang buhay na ibinigay satin hindi pa natin lubos lubusin, lahat naman ng tao nagkakamali, siguro nasa tao na rin yun kung paano niya tatanggapin ang pagkakamali niya at paano niya haharapin ang buhay na naghihintay para sa kanya.

Oh Lord. I pity them so much, hindi man lang nila naexperience to live life "to the fullest".

parang wala tayong kakontentuhan sa buhay

Greed is salt for the person who thirsts for happiness.

nakakatakot! 78 bodies? woah!... tsk,tsk! ano kayang ka-demonyohang pumasok sa mga utak ng mga taong yun at nagpakamatay sila?! 

ganda-gandang mabuhay eh! 

[aning!]

creepy. people who commit suicide are i dunno.. misinformed. the thing is that they think suicide will make all the bad things go away.
the truth is that yes, all the bad things of this earth go away but you're in for a bigger problem, hell

[imyourangel]

^Yeah, akala nila they can escape in this life's problems na if they kill themselves. But hey, may eternal life pa! Who knows where they will spend it.

[pach]

That's true

Suicide is a completion of hell. I'd never imagine a happy person down there. It's always based on how a person lived.

They have already made a hell out of their lives - an earthly life that is bereft of love, of self-acceptance and forgiveness. And self inflicted death is the cherry on top.

As my oft repeated statement - the only sin that cannot be forgiven is to refuse forgiveness itself. They made that choice, they should live with it.

This is the essence of hell. Oh boy, now who says God needs to 'send people down there'? He no longer needs to.

wow, this is so depressing. I don't even want to believe it's true. Why would you do such a thing? Life is so beautiful. God, it's just so indescribably sad and irritating at the same it.

Wow, that when my bf rags on me how my japanese blood is sooo weird.

*sigh* suicide is a permanent solution for a temp. problem.

Sa sobrang timid ng mga Japanese, kahit 'yung mga personal problems nila they hardly share it to anyone. They'd rather keep it to themselves. My mom, who lives in Japan, would always kiddingly say that most Japanese die of sama ng loob/pagkimkim ng problema.

Kaya huge hit palagi sa kanila ang mga KTV, comedy shows, magic tricks, and other variety shows para kahit for a few hours makapag-relax man lang sila. Masyado kasi silang workaholic and they're a bit emotionally sensitive. May neighbor kami before na high school student who committed suicide because he's being bullied in school. Hindi sila kagaya nating mga Pinoy na palaban at maraming outlet. They're the literal example of "school-bahay-school-bahay" teenagers.

Not that I'm generalizing, I'm just saying what I've noticed/observed with my neighbors and what I see in the news.
