To those that matter


One thing I feel so passionate about is Teen Suicide, I am completely against it i can't stress how much my heart aches every time I hear that a teen has taken their own life. Suicide is never an option to me I don't see it as taking the easy way out because there's nothing easy about making that decision,  although to some it may take a small situation that would trigger such strong emotions that in the heat of the moment they will decide that nothing matters anymore. Teenagers need to realise one thing and one thing only Life is so much more than being a teenager in high school, first of all high school isn't the prime of your life, not even college is, high school is a period in time where you might have it good or might have it bad but eventually it does end, don't feel bad because you're being bullied and people hate you or starting gossip about you, because guess what, in life you will find people like that, some people would hate you right on the spot for the way you dress the way you talk whatever it is they will judge you right on the spot and they will remain consistent with that judgement, and they will be people who would bully you non stop to get some sort of reaction form you all of this happens like its nothing, like there's no consequences whatsoever and most of the time there isn't. 
You need to realise that if all of this is happing and you feel like you are not loved you don't belong, you don't have anyone… guess what YOU do and that person is YOURSELF. respect and love and appreciate your individuality, wear your flag high, the moment you realise just how precious you are and how important your life is and can be you will become transformed completely, you need to understand that you can make something of yourself, and i'm not talking about a fairytale i'm talking about you going to college finding a major that interests you working for an organisation that you love, doing volunteer work, marrying someone, sharing your life with others all of this is so normal and can happen to anyone, and as normal and universal that is it is also magical and beautiful. 
Don't waste your time on those who are wasted, those are the people that don't matter and in the grand picture they are not even there. Read books, watch movies, listen to music, get inspired, become motivated, discover your interests, find your idols, get a plan, work, work even harder, set a goal, achieve that goal, then set another one… realise just how much you could do. 
Please don't ever let anyone bring you down. feel comfortable in your skin and become your own person.

  1. I understand there is a certain chemical release that needs to be dealt with when one has reached a sense of hopelessness. It's an under-lying current that debilitates reason and more like a persistent rabid animal trying to bite at you, latch on, release its venom into your bloodstream, but never let life ebb away. suicide provides the solution and evidently one has reached a point of ill concern with the fastidiousness of life and all her demands. He/She wants the damned thing to be over at this juncture....It's unbearable....
