In the midst of my painful feelings, I can feel the depth of suffering that you have put into words up to this point.
The job hunting didn't go well, the path to college didn't go as expected, I'm sorry for my parents and those around me... It's no wonder that these things overlap and people feel that “there's no future left.” But is that “courage” really good for facing death?
In Buddhism, it is explained that suffering is born when people encounter a reality that does not turn out the way they want. This is called “suffering (suffering).” But at the same time, it is also taught that it is in this suffering that people notice what is really important.
Right now, I feel like you continue to blame your “self that didn't go well” and “yourself for not being able to meet expectations.” However, that evaluation is only a temporary result. The value of your existence will never be determined by that.
Your parents probably didn't raise you this far in search of perfect success. What I really hope for is the point of “I want them to be alive,” isn't it? The fact that they stay alive, even if it takes a detour or is clunky, is in itself my greatest wish.
You said, “I don't have the courage.” It's also proof that you definitely still have a desire to “still live.” Please don't deny that little voice.
I want them to have “the courage to live just a little longer,” not the courage to die. It doesn't matter if it's just one day today. Try deciding “I'm not going to draw a conclusion right now.”
Life doesn't go the way you imagine it. However, there are also countless times when an unexpected relationship opens up a completely different path.
Please don't hold it alone, and try to rely just a little bit on someone close to you or someone you can talk to. There is always someone who can accept your suffering.
You're not a failed person. I am a person who is in the midst of suffering right now. And that suffering is by no means yours alone.
Please don't rush to make the decision to end your life here. I'm sure there are relationships waiting for you in the future that you haven't seen yet. Gassho
