I useful operating principle I adopted later in life than I should have is to not worry about things beyond my control. The inevitability of Death, most of the behavior of other people, the turning of the Earth, things like that.
My friend’s suicide is defying my philosophy. He is both too much with me and not enough. I am angry at him and wanting to console him when both are now pointless and impossible.
Time must do its work.
Going for my walk now.
