Today in class we did presentations on issues.

I did racism since I'm passionate of these type of problems. Feminism, Gender Equality etc.

One of my close friends/ classmate wrote on Bullying, Discrimination and judgement.

At the end of her speech I could already feel her pain throughout those simple words.

And I promised her, that I was going to put her words in my book.

So this is for you Courtney,

Dedicated to Courtney McDonalds,
A friend, and a fellow pain holder, thank you for your words that I may share with the world.

Part one..

To all you young people who tend to make us feel like nothing
And who think they can bring us down
Make our lives miserable,
Or try to make us drown our loves.

I STAND AGAINST THAT!

who are you? To tell me,

I'm not good enough, when you're no better?

Is it because you may be a bit bigger than me?

Maybe smaller?

More clothes?

Truth is I'm not trying to be good enough for other people, I'll do good for myself.

Is it because you have more friends?

Sure it's okay, I'm my own ride or die.

Who are you?

To question my abilities and expose my weaknesses.

But you don't know my everyday struggle.

"I don't live life for you. I live life for me." -Just a little input I wanted to add.

Part two will be posted soon enough.

Credits go to my classmate Courtney.

Tell her how you feel about her words.
