Suicide is courageous? inspriational? It is tragic, horrible, a loss. Yes, depression is a hole of untold depths. That realityy does not make suicide anything but understandable, yet wasteful. Her life was of greater value than that.

@Ellexorip I do belive it is the score by Philip Glass made for the movie The Hours.

She'll never be forgotten...

That which fed her spirit as a youth was carted off cruelly by death and maltreatment, so that her spirit slowly and progressively became emaciated until she nobly freed it from its physical prison. Strangely she was a good swimmer, yet she "forced herself to die in the cold water of the river." She was resolute in her determination to undress her spirit from its strangling clothing. And it ascended smiling. That is clear.

So she was a carpet muncher - a woman of great taste.

I recommend her diaries. I cannot get enough of them, and often will go back and reread sections when I feel aimless in my own work. I cannot imagine my life without her work in it. I have learned alot from her. In this video I heard for the first time of her trip to Germany to see how bad it had gotten. The effect of war on her mental illness must have be excruciating. She is too often cast as a victim. I find her courageous and joyful in her writing despite whatever life threw at her.

such an inspirational lady, what a sad but brave story of a courageous woman who is in a terrible situation. r.i.p virginia. godbless you!!
i doubt this comment will be of any significance to anybody, and i'd like to see someone here know what i'm talking about, but at 3:52, that piano music sounds a lot like the music of shannon wright. it just reminds me so much of her.
