Hearing today of Bourdain's suicide in France was a terrible shock. I've watched his show and admired his style and now, he's gone from all of us.
I'm sad. But I understand. He has no obligation to continue living if he feels he's had all he can take. I do not believe in Heaven or Hell and I don't believe it's a sin to take one's own life. It is, after all, one's own life.
God bless you Anthony. But I wish you hadn't hanged yourself -- ugh: painful and ugly.
As for me, I want to maintain awareness through that whole transition. So, perhaps a couple of scotches, a hot bath, a pill or two and a quick slit to the wrist as one watches the warm blood flow?
I'm not trying to be morbid, though I do sound that way.
Sic transit Antonio.
