That suicide is not necessarily the most difficult thing to do, not the greatest rejection of desire. Depending upon circumstance one desire can be stronger than another.

I for example hate my life. I firmly believe I've the capacity to end it and would even do so but for a courtesy at my parents. But considering other difficulties...such as having to engage in the drudgery that is work or school...I cannot endure it. I have tried and always fail in the endeavor, I give up, I capitulate in the rejection of unpleasant and meaningless work, though I desire to be able to do otherwise so for honor and practical purposes. I cannot. Conversely, I can and often consider leaping from a particular tall building. I I've not a shred of skepticism that my convictions could allow me to do so.
