what's inside. you have no idea...part 3
Words kill, words give life; they're either poison or fruit -- you choose.
Like I breiefly mentioned before, in the "Gossipping" section -- unless you've experienced it personally, you have no idea what you're saying could affect the people around you. Or, the people around you have no idea that what they're saying could be affecting you really badly.
Recently, suicide has become a huge problem. I'm not gonna fill up your brain with all these facts about it, because, at least what I think -- that's not gonna help, is it? Well, in a way it does, I guess. I mean, it helped me realize how, well, serious it is.
One of the most common causes is this: bullying. Real-life bullying, cyber-bullying.
We have no idea what this can do. People can just make you feel so pathetic, so.. useless. lifeless. Just by words. Words on a page. Words in the world.
But you know what? There's always a solution. Always a way out. I mean, I know some people say, "Stay and fight, you wimp." And sometimes, I guess that's the way to go. Like, for causes that affect a lot of people. But if you're in danger -- don't stay, try and figure it out on your own. Even if that's how you feel -- on your own.
Because, even if I'm not an expert on this type of stuff, there's one thing I know -- You're never alone. Never in your life are you ever alone, even if it seems that way. Because someone is always there. Through every moment in your life, good or bad. Even though people may be missing from these times, when you feel you really need them -- God's here. God will never, ever leave you. Never.
