Today's lunch was the exact same as yesterday so I thought that on this day of remembrance, I would take the time to thank all first responders and military personnel.
I also thought that I would take a moment to let everyone know that this is National Suicide Prevention Week. If you or someone you know show any of the following signs:
- Talking about death and/or no reason to live
- Withdraws from friends or social activities
- Loses interest in hobbies, work, school, etc
- Gives away prize possessions
- Have been unwilling to "connect" with potential helpers
Know that you are not alone! There is help out there! In our county there is a "Warm Line" that people in crisis can call to get help and referrals.
