Welcome to my Quirk, my Foible, my ...
And it's simple.
Choice.
I seek it, and I seek to maximise it in others. I will always allow others it, even when it hurts me but don't think cause I allow it that I give it away. I keep it for myself too. This means that I really don't like taking choice away from someone.
It appears to manifest in interesting and sometime unfortunate ways.
And the most interesting to me right now is the thought I just had spawned by a friends LJ post and associated poem.
I also know this a subject that strikes close to home for some (possibly many) who will read this (you will know who you are) so be warned/assured this is only me and I'm not suggesting anything, I'm only "vocalising" a thought process and a self-realisation.
- I don't think I could believably argue someone out of commiting suicide, because I don't think I'd want to take the choice away from them. I'd be sad and annoyed and angry and uncomfortable, but I don't think I could ultimately force them not to.
Just a wierd thought late at night, spawned in tired brain, having read thought provoking stuff.
Good night.
