I will never understand why people think its okay to torment or tease another individual. If there's one thing I hate, its a bully. People can be so cruel, and its disgusting, and downright disturbing. WE will never know peace if we continue to promote violence. I knew a girl who was such a nasty person to her peers, but I later found out that she didn't come from a nurturing and loving family, I actually started to pity her. Unfortunately, I cannot go into everyones homes to see if children are being cared for properly. I was teased in grade school, the things people would say would hurt my feelings. Eventually, said hurt turned into anger and I wanted revenge, I didn't get it. Because I knew I could say some things that would tear these people down and that would just be..well, mean. So I got over it, I listen closely when someone is bashing me or talking down to me, because I know they feel these things about themselves. Its sad honestly. But you have to grow thick skin in this cold world, because no one is going to sugar code their words, hell they wont even code them, just a harsh blunt words. It makes me so angry that I can't take away the hate or the hateful words. I get even angrier when I cant stop the real tragedy where bullying leads to suicide. And thats the most unfortunate event of them all. Its okay to see something, and put a stop to it. I think as a community we need to get rid of the bystander effect all together. I like helping people who cannot help themselves. And I believe that if we all work together we can stop bullying for good. Spread love to angry people because the meanest souls need it the most.
