INDIA Local residents discovered something strange floating on the river’s surface. Upon closer inspection, they found that it was the bodies of a man and a woman tied together. It almost looked as if they were embracing each other. Both were pulled ashore and handed over to the police for standard investigative procedures.
Although no official information has been released, it is speculated that it was a joint suicide of the couple. Unfortunately, this is a common occurrence in India due to the persistent caste system and parents interfering in their children’s romantic lives.
If you’re thinking about suicide, please stop and recognize that your pain is not permanent, but this step would be. It may feel like there’s no other way, but there is hope, even if it’s hard to see right now. Your feelings are temporary, and with help, they can pass.
Talking about what you're going through might feel difficult, but it’s the first step toward healing. Don’t turn away from the people who want to support you. Life can offer more than what you're feeling right now, and the pain doesn't have to last forever. You deserve help, and it’s available.
