" He was such a nice boy.
The quiet one with good intentions.
He was down for his brother, respectful to his mother
A good boy, but good don't get attention.
One kid with a promise, the brightest kid in school.
He's not a fool.
Reading books about science and smart stuff
It's not enough, no
'cause smart don't make you cool, whoa."
--Kelly Rowland "Stole"
Dear Diary,
There is something that has been bothering me for a long time. Almost every day, I see or hear of a case of bullying. He's ugly. She's ugly. I would never leave my house if I had a tube like that. She's a whore. He's a dick. She just wants attention and he is just a loser.
It makes me sad, diary.
It disappoints me to no end.
We are supposed to be a civilized society. Yet, we degrade and judge constantly. We talk about ending bullying. We talk about peace. Yet, the disrespect and maliciousness prevails.
It bothers me that we are so quick to say something mean to someone else, rather than to tell them everything we love about them. Since I became sick, I've had tubes put in my body. I have gained weight from medicine and fluid. I have become more pale.
I will be judged for this.
Recently, I posted a picture of myself and two other girls who have or have had tubes in their nose at one point on a most beautiful teen contest. We got comments with people saying we just want sympathy votes or we are not beautiful. I did not post those pictures to get sympathy. I posted them so that people realize that beauty doesn't just come from the outside. Beauty isn't about how somebody looks, acts, or talks. Beauty is about who you are, and everybody is beautiful in their own way.
It saddens me to think that people in today's world still have a shallow and ignorant way of thinking. It saddens me that people cannot see the beauty that lies with every human being.
It saddens me that people cannot see the beauty in the world.
It bothers me that people are so quick to bully someone else. They are so quick to call out somebody's insecurities. They are so quick to ridicule.
They don't think about how their words affect other people.
They don't realize that people are dying because of bullying.
People are killing themselves.
People are killing other people.
I wonder how many people have to die before we realize that we need to stop the judging. We need to stop the ridicule. We need to stop the hate because if we don't people are going to die.
Maybe if we all spread love, diary, the world would be a better place.
Maybe if we all took a second to realize the beauty in other people, we wouldn't be so quick to call out their insecurities.
Everyone is beautiful.
Everyone's life matters.
Nobody deserves harsh words.
Love Forever & Always,
Me
