Remembering 911: An Editorial
I wanted to share this editorial I found on the website of WHAS, our local TV station here in Louisville.
14 years ago, Americans learned they can't ignore the terror of extremists.
Fourteen years ago, the United States suffered a shockingly successful surprise attack by a little known Islamic extremist group based 7,000 miles away in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Since then, a U.S. invasion chased al-Qaeda out of its haven, and targeted strikes eventually eliminated most of its senior leaders, including Osama bin Laden in 2011. The danger from the group that killed nearly 3,000 Americans on Sept. 11, 2001, has waned.Its influence lives on, however, through offshoot extremist groups that have eclipsed al-Qaeda — none more so than the Islamic State, the lightning spread of which through Syria and Iraq has been marked by medieval barbarity, adapted to the Internet age.

Suicide Awareness Part 3: YOU MATTER!
Thousands take their own life each and every day. It saddens me that all those beautiful beings reached the point of no return, leaving this world thinking we would be better off without them.
If you are feeling suicidal please take a few minutes to allow my words to sink in...You are needed! You are wanted! You are loved! Know (and believe) that this world is a better place because you are here. There is so much good you can do. And will do. And me and others know that you're not weak. You're just tired, you're just hurting.
Please, Click on the link below and just look over the material. Reach out to a trained professional. They care about you. They wouldn't be there if they didn't. No judgments. Just understanding and compassion. Allow them to help lighten that heavy load you're carrying.

This song is for you! Know that this is about YOU!
How wonderful life is...now you're in the world!

Suicide Awareness Part 2: What You Can Do To Help
If you know of someone who is contemplating suicide, if you even suspect they are, there is something you can do.
o Ask directly if your friend is thinking about suicide.
o Be willing to listen. Allow their expressions of feelings, and accept those feelings.
o Be non-judgmental. Don't debate whether suicide is right or wrong, or whether feelings are good or bad. Don't lecture on the value of life. Focus on being present with their feelings.
o Get involved. Become available. Show interest and support.
o Check in with your friend regularly. Schedule times to talk for the next week when you will both be available, to see how they are doing.
o Don't act shocked. This will put distance between you. Be patient with yourself and the situation
o Don't be sworn to secrecy. Seek support.
o Offer hope that alternatives are available but do not offer glib reassurance.
o Take action. Remove means, such as guns or stockpiled pills
o Get help from agencies specializing in crisis intervention and suicide prevention.
o Encourage (and offer to accompany) your friend to seek help and support from a crisis specialist, therapist, doctor and/or clergy member.
o Show them the safety or “crisis coping plan” on the Lifeline web site, and talk together about your friend can use this to help him/her to cope in these difficult moments.

Share and use this resource to help make stronger connections in your own communities and through social media. Use these tips to reach out to those who may be struggling. We can ALL do something to help prevent suicide.
