• Everyone Counts! You aren’t the only one…

Many people don’t understand people who are depressed or those who commit suicide(I can honestly say that I don’t know anything either, but I can sure tell you what I assume is wrong). They only ask why or what they could’ve done. What you’ve got to understand is the act of taking your own life takes a lot. Almost everyone has this ego where they feel good about themselves, however after months, or years of cruelty, that ego can slowly be destroyed.To want means that you really feel there is nothing left. You feel like everyone hates you, everything you do is wrong, and if you weren’t there anymore no one would ever notice. No impact would be left on anyone.

Of course anyone who has ever been near, seen, or lived through someone who commit suicide could tell you that it’s a big deal. No one really wants this or means to cause this. And what is sad is that you don’t just go kill yourself in seconds. It takes a long time of buildup of hate from people.  

Now there are multiple kinds of people who are depressed but the two that have a big impact are the ones who are quiet and the ones who are bullies. To be a quiet depressed person takes a lot of effort. It isn’t easy being able to bottle up your emotions, and never act on them. You wouldn’t fight back because you feel it’s wrong but you could feel angry. And at some points this can be bad as to the point of rather than anger you feel acceptance of what you use to hate. You begin to accept the lies people tell you to hurt you.

The other kind is bullies. These are the worst, because they don’t bully for no reason at all, they do it cause it’s what they feel makes them feel better. What they can’t get through their narrow minded brains is that they hurt so many people. It’s one thing to be sad, it’s another to act on it because it can either have a positive or negative outcome. As a bully you feel that demeaning people makes you feel powerful. As though you rule and what you say goes. But that’s not the case. What they are doing is they are spreading depression… slowly but surely.

Think of it this way. As a farmer you want your crops to prosper and grow. This isn’t possible with insects eating away at them and killing them. So you apply pesticide, weed killer, and everything thing is better. You are able to save more crops and make more of a profit. HOWEVER, there is a problem. Turn out the pesticide you used ended up POISONING crops. What happens next? Innocent people begin to feel sick and are horrible harmed by the consumption of these crops. MORAL: A bully is the farmer and the crops are their ego. They begin with this innocent thought that doing this one thing will make everything better. As they apply pesticide they bully. And in the end they kill other peoples ego, and for what? to salvage your own ego. Is your life really worth thousands of others?

What I’m trying to say is bullying is not the answer. We all heard of doing little things can have a big consequence, but some people just don’t want to believe this thought. They feel that what they think is right, and as far as they are concerned they are fixing parts of a certain problem. THEY AREN’T LOOKING AT THE WHOLE PROBLEM. Be nice to be people, care for them, talk to them. You never know when you will be doing good, or if you’re even making any impact. But what you should know is that you aren’t making anything worse. You aren’t slowly eating at or destroying someone else’s life. Someone who has just as much right to walk, breathe, and live on this earth as you do.

Don’t be the one who causes trouble and difficulty to solve a problem, be the one who helps change the view on how the problem should be solved.
