I have been wondering why many of our youth are turning to suicide as an escape from the emotional turmoil and torture that is bullying. I sometimes wish that they could understand the meaning behind the words so many often provide, “It Gets Better”. The truth is, as you get older, you become emotionally stronger and more comfortable in who you are. You are more aware of who you are, and what you want in life. You slowly start to realize that all the bullies and negative people who tried to bring you down, their words no longer mean anything, because at the end of the day, words are only as strong as you allow them to be. You have the people who love you around you, whether it be your family or your friends. People can only mentally affect you if you let them. That switch in the mind turns on with maturity, self-acceptance, and greater self-esteem, and I hope that more of our youth can realize that life is not just Primary School or High School. One day it will just be a few years out of many, that hopefully made you a better and stronger person. EVERYONE has the potential to become someone great, that can change a few or many lives. Don’t end your life because someone else thinks you should. Know that you are stronger and will be someone with ideas, that can implement change. Don’t let negative people be a blip on your radar! Think Postive, Stay Strong! #positivity
