Painless?

When I was in Primary School, our school choir sang the theme song to the popular TV show MASH4077. You can read the lyrics here Now as I look at the words as an adult I am shocked that a church school (Lutheran) would allow their students to sing a song that talks about taking your own life. I am reminded of it because yesterday we heard the tragic news of someone, with many similar labels and responsibilities as us, who went to the place of no return. Despite the turmoil going on in our own house, I cannot but help to stop and pray regularly for this man's family and the many touched by his loss.
