A heartless hand on my shoulder, a push and it's over

 
Greetings,
this is a really simple outfit but I'm wearing one of my favorite shirts, so that makes it better?
 
Outfit details:
blouse: thrifted
skirt: thrifted
necklace worn as headband: gift
shoes: target
 
  
 
 
 
I was trying to make a funny face but it didn't work out .__.
 
Recently, I watched this documentary about the Golden Gate Bridge suicides (hence the title of my post which is from a Smiths song) and I thought it was really interesting. The film showed actual footage of several people jumping off the bridge and they interviewed their friends and family afterwards. Apart from showing the deaths it was mainly educational as you learn through the interviews what kind of state the people were in to have decided to make that fatal jump. I think the most well known story of the bridge that people know about is that guy who survived and he's interviewed in the film too. He says that the second he jumped off he realized he didn't want to die... his famous quote is something like "All the problems in my life that I thought were unfixable were fixable, except having jumped off the bridge".


Farewell, 
         -Blythe

  8. You're so pretty! I love this outfit with your braids.
    I'll have to check out the documentary. It must be very sad but it's good to try and understand why people would want to kill themselves, so maybe you could help.
