Suicide

God must get pretty depressed about suicide. If you think about it, God gives you this really cool present - your life - and it's like the best mecchano or constructor set in the world.
You can make ANYTHING out of it. You could make something completely crap, or you could make something spectacular. Or you could fiddle around with it for ages and eventually come up with something that maybe doesn't look as flash as some of the other constructor projects, but that IS something that you're happy with.

So I think about when you give someone something for Christmas that they don't like. And they say "Oh - how useful" whilst thinking "Bugger, I'm going to have to get that out or put that on whenever he comes around just to make him think I like it!". And you feel a little like a turd sandwich because maybe you should have got them something else.
But I guess for God it's a little worse than that because he's giving you "anything" and he's going to be there to see you chuck your present out - and there's bugger all he can do about it because it's your present - it's your choice - that's the deal with presents.

I guess one of the problems is that sometimes, when the whole mecchano set is tangled up and in a mess, it's hard to see how to make anything else out of it but another mess - and the process of deconstructing so that you can reconstruct appears bloody daunting.

So how do you do it?
One piece at a time I guess. Take off the bits you REALLY don't like, one at a time. Then work towards making something that you DO want - or maybe, in the beginning, just making something that's NOT what you DON'T want.

It can be a slow process and isn't simple - but none of the good presents are - or you'd get bored with them on Xmas day....
