Live Bravely

What are some ways that you as an individual LIVE BRAVELY?

I know for myself, I try to keep a positive focus, and am making plans, coming up with ideas for this organization and ways to get the messages out to the world.. I would like to get your input, and also get some encouraging sayings, who knows one day I may use them on a shirt to promote awareness and get people talking about suicide in a positive way..

As Always.. LIVE BRAVELY!

These are the 4 points of Courage in Relation to preventing Suicide.

1. The Courage To Live. ( This is the MOST important point.)
2. The Courage to get Help. (It’s not always easy when you are thinking about ending your life to ask for help, because you may be afraid someone might think you are crazy or not understand what’s going on that brought you to this point.)
3. The Courage to Help. (It’s also not easy to offer to help someone to get help, or to stand by them when you see the signs, or see that something is wrong. ALWAYS ask the person if they are thinking about ending their life.)
4. The Courage to remember the good things about the people we have lost. (It’s hard to get past the tragedy of the loss of someone you knew, even harder if you are close to the person. But if you remember the good things about that person and remember that that person had a life and hold them in your heart, the loss becomes easier to bear.. ALWAYS remember that it’s NOT your fault, it was that person’s CHOICE. )

Above all that.. LIVE BRAVELY!

We are glad you made it here. Live Bravely is a grassroots organization focused on education, training and reflection in relation to Suicide. The dream for Live Bravely is to help others to prevent needless deaths. Suicide is not a solution! This site is currently under construction and will be going through quite a few changes over the next little while, so please bear with us as we work on this new site. Live Bravely is also excited to plan for the upcoming “72 Hours for Life” again this year in September..  There will also be a site set up for that event. Until then, be well, and LIVE BRAVELY!
