Day 14

Words That Carried Me

Everybody dies but not everybody lives

Live so that those who turn their back on you turn around

I Know What It’s Like to Think The World May Be Better Off Without You

I know what it’s like to live as a child who was scared of everything and constantly made fun of. To be mocked, ridiculed, and belittled. To think would anyone care or even notice if I were no longer here.

I know what it was like to dread every school day and count down the hours until you could leave and head home to be alone in your solitary existence.

What’s worse is that no one knew what I was going through. My parents were great to me as a child but they didn’t think to even ask if I was truly ok.

While growing up like this was extremely tough I somehow got through it and thankfully my father gave me the greatest gift a father could ever give his son. My father got me in the gym and that is where I found myself.
