Not sure what to title this...

The other day I was in the subway and saw a man jump in front of the train to kill himself. He was just an average looking man... nothing outrageous or outstanding. He must have been standing 10-15 ft from me. And he was just waiting for the train with all the other after work commuters but he was waiting for a different reason. I remember looking over and seeing him and not really thinking anything about him. Now I have passing thoughts hinking if I had looked closer and seen some sort of sadness of hurt in his eyes or in his face maybe I could have helped him. Maybe I could have just told him something simple like... you matter or you are special... and he would have seen the light. I know thats stupid and in reality if I had said anything it probably would have just prolonged what he was doing or it wouldn't have changed anything. Then I get tp thinking about Brad maybe if I had tried harder to get ahold of him that day I could have heard something in his voice and talked him out of that last little bit. But its the same thing... as unfaithful as it sounds, it probably would have only prolonged the inevitable.
