ok i hated elementary school
i never had alot of friends
i was never a pretty blonde popular girl
i never was a sporty chica
i pretty much did art all the time or play in my own world in my mind
in middle school i went to a private school
it was like mean girls
except in middle school form
which made it a million times worse
i was like janice but without a damion
have any of you ever been bullied??
thats a stupid question (i am a firm believer that there ARE stupid questions and stupid answers)
EVERYONE AT SOME POINT HAS
even going to the hospital for help
i know some people were talking behind my back
even some of the ladies in the hospital were inconceivably mean
there are some real bitches out there.
one thing that i have found to be extremely reassuring and still do is those wonderful grown ups
those wonderful grown ups who are
our adopted mothers/fathers we meet in life
our biological parents/relations
kind mentors
our therapists and counselors
those few god sent teachers that inspired us to better people (you know who you are!!)
today i saw something truly horrific & i cried because my heart broke
there is a little boy who was bullied by his own TEACHERS in school
akian also has autism
akian was yelled at and demeaned by his special needs teachers
i watched this video, what a mix of emotions!!
sadness and empathy for akian and his dad
anger and loathing for akians teachers
but also pity for them
i pity them because they probably have never been truly loved and thus project it on others, even helpless children who need extra TLC
i pity them because they are blinded by selfishness as well as self loathing
i cried for akian for his devastated parents for his teachers for all of the children in the world who are abused for those who are lonely and unloved who have little resources who are starving who are hungry who are homeless who are submersed in materialism
i cried for the world because we are all broken & need help bringing our souls back together in one piece
please watch this video and see how you feel about it
