Hello everyone I come across people daily who think they’re d*mb or they’re st*pid or they’re not good enough for this earth. Some of these people may be your friends, others strangers, some are maybe people you’ve talked to, but don’t consider them as a friend just yet, and one could even be you. Well, today, I’m going to try my hardest to help. I know how it feels to hate yourself. I know that sometimes it seems like no one cares. I know that sometimes it feels like everyone is better off without you. I know that sometimes it feels like your entire world is falling apart. But, to quote Dear Evan Hansen, Act 1, Song 9, “No one deserves to be forgotten. No one deserves to fade away. No one should flicker out, or have any doubt that it matters, that they are here. No one deserves to disappear.” I’m sure you’re probably thinking, “well I’m an exception to that.” But you’re not. You’re an amazing person, who MATTERS. Yeah, you heard me. You’re so, /so/ special. You’re a unique, perfect, beautiful human being who is worthy of love. Now, I know I’m just some girl on Scratch. Chances are, we haven’t met. You’re probably thinking “pfft, this kid doesn’t know me!” And you’re right, I don’t know you. But, I believe, no, I’m /sure/ you’re an awesome person. Now, this is more serious, but... sometimes, you start feeling so bad, that you... you decide you can’t take it anymore. I’m not going to say what some people do, because I know there are many young children on this website, but for those of you who know what I’m talking about, p l e a s e , don’t do it. Think about all the people who would miss you, and don’t say no one will miss you. Your family, your friends, your classmates, your teachers, everyone, will miss you. Think about all the things you’d be missing out on. You’ll never get to see another sunrise, you’ll never get to see another Christmas morning, you’ll never get to go to DisneyLand, you’ll never get to laugh until you cry again, you’ll never have another chance to make someone smile when they’re hurting, you’ll never get to get married, or if you plan to stay single, you’ll never get to go to your best friend’s wedding. The list goes on forever! And, there’s those personal experiences you’ll miss out on too that I cannot list. For this reason, I encourage you to make your own list. It can be daily, weekly, whenever. Another thing that I also find helpful, is listening to my favorite music. It helps take my mind off the b*d. You know, my best friend Soap always tells me “There’s always light at the end of a dark tunnel.” You have to keep pushing through to get to the end. You can do it, I believe in you. I’m sorry this project is so long :’) I hope I helped in some way. I love you all <3 (I’m also sorry that I had to censor some words because the new scratcher filters are very strict)
