Heartwarming Tearjerker of the Day: The sheer cliffs at the mouth of Sydney Harbor have long been a popular Australian suicide spot. But they’re about to get a lot more deadly — the local man who is credited with talking at least 160 people out of killing themselves since 1964 died this week.
Window-watcher Don Ritchie, known as the Angel of the Gap, could spot the troubled ones from his home across the street; he’d wander down to the cliff-edge and calmly ask, “Can I help you in some way?” More often then not, he could. He’d chat with them a bit, then invite them back to his place for a cup of tea.
“My ambition has always been to just get them away from the edge, to buy them time, to give them the opportunity to reflect and give them the chance to realize that things might look better the next morning,” Ritchie once said. “You just can’t sit there and watch them. You’ve got to try and save them.”
I can’t believe it. Just a couple of months ago I read all about this man and told some of my friends and family about his story, in hopes of spreading his beautiful message - that you never know what someone could be going through and that a simple smile and an understanding heart can do extraordinary things. I told a good friend of mine that one day, I wanted to go find Mr. Ritchie in Australia just to meet him and simply talk with him. I wanted to hear all about his life from his own mouth and his own very personal experiences. But this is just another reminder that life is so precious and you must savor it all and not put off the things you say you desire to do. Of course, I wouldn’t have been able to make it to Australia this year, and Mr. Ritchie was indeed old, but the reminder is important all the same.
He was a beautiful man and will continue to be an amazing example of the good left in this world.
