Hey guys

This is me ranting.








I apologize for the rant now but I need to say it.

























So I saw that on a profile yesterday and it really struck home. Im not one of the popular kids. Ive been pushed around too much before. Ive lost my cool. Im not proud of it, but its true.










I have friends who have been bullies about their looks, their choices, their boyfriends/girlfriends.

















I have a friend who gets sh!t about why her boyfriends move and gets told that she is the reason to blame and its not okay.





















People are so rude and ugly about others that its been ignored for years. Our parents only had to deal with it at school. They could disappear at home.














We cant.




















Social media is cruel. People think that they can post things and get away with it.














And most of the time











They do.













Bullying is an issue that has been swept under the rug for years. Decades. And its been too long. Its been too familiarized in the world.  So much so that we think its normal and its alright.












Im not the best person if you dont know me. I dont trust many people. I made that mistake. Thats how I was bullied.














We can stop this. Today. Starting with you. Stop the rumors. Stop the hate.









It takes one person to make a change. But it takes a march to make a difference.










I know you're thinking that this is stupid and Im another person whose being told to do this with the commercial stop bullying now thing.

But ive had too many people that i know hurt. I have a friend who was called a slut and a whore and was bullied relentlessly for standing up for herself. I have a friend who was told that she needed to change because everyone hated her and they didnt want to say it to her face. I have a friend who was locked in a closet and told that her face didnt matter. I have a friend who had nasty rumors spread about her because she simply wasnt liked. I was bullied for telling people to stop. And when they didnt, by showing them what they wanted. That they had gotten under my skin.
















































You are beautiful. You are amazing. You are worthy. You are loved. You dont need to pretend that things are hurting you. But you need to stay strong. You need to hold your head high and be strong. No one can do that for you but yourself. Cutting yourself is a temporary solution to a long term problem. It is not a solution. It doesnt matter what gender you are, what the color of your skin is, what your native language is, what your sexuality is, or what your religion is. You matter. You are loved. You are you.













Thanks for reading my rant. Please share the picture from the top of this post. Be part of that 5%. Start a change.

I don't know when I'll post again. I just saw the pic and needed to rant about it.

Yours in writing, whit, and craziness.
