I don't think Jimi committed suicide in the conventional way. He just decided to exit when he wanted to.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The idea of suicide is of a very set narrative, as if killing yourself is a definitive statement. But it can be just as meaningless as throwing a stone in a river.
Jimi was a good guy 'til he got into drugs. That's the way it is. I just tell it like it is.
Nobody could understand why a guy would love his guitar, then all of a sudden turn around and try to destroy it. Jimi was just different.
We can consciously end our life almost anytime we choose. This ability is an endowment, like laughing and blushing, given to no other animal... in any given moment, by not exercising the option of suicide, we are choosing to live.
Kurt had this dumb suicidal ideation - that's what I called it. I thought if we could live through this, we could live through anything.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
Suicide is not an answer, it's destruction.
He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt.
Drunkenness is temporary suicide.
I never really got to know Jimi as a person.
