Terminating Tragedy

Hello fellow readers,

'Death is a question in life
Life is the answer to death.'

Like I hinted above:
Death

Who deserves to die?
Maybe no one or maybe someone.
Yet how does our opinion matter when it all happens to everyone in turn, right?
WRONG

'Actions speak louder than words.'
Isn't that a common proverb between us teens?
Here we are proving that both speak loud and not one louder than the other.
Intentionally or unintentionally, jabbing people with our words.

Suicide.
Nothing serious, eh? Quite the opposite.
Yesterday, an ordinary, pretty and pleasant looking 15 year old took her life away.
Neither do I know her, neither do I know why this happened.
Why am I affected? Good question.
A girl of the same age, living right here where I am, a tenth grader just like me and she's dead.
Maybe not quite effective but I still hear a loud ping in my heart thinking about any of this.

With no idea of the scenario or any reliable information but again rather, word of mouth,
I'm here writing.
Nobody deserves to die.
Nobody deserves to not feel needed.

That classmate who sits behind you and smiles at you and you never spoke to?
He must be abused at home everyday.
That girl you got angry at in line must have not slept in days for making wrong decisions.

What if we spoke?
Would that perhaps change a slight change of path and cause something completely different?
YES
Smile and make a person's day.
What if you're the reason to save a life?

Rest In Peace, Stella.
You will be missed.
-the people who didn't speak.

Your words mean something, readers, think before you speak.

Inspiring Young Individuals

My mom once told me "If someone takes their life, there are many to blame. A harsh word, a mean act would force them to think of the worst. On the contrary, just imagine saving a life unintentionally by slipping in a supportive message, so always be nice to people because you don't know what they're going through." -- If you're having a bad day, i would like you to cheer up! You made it through a hell of a week of schooling and you're past another challenging day. Maybe you had a fight with a friend you care about, maybe you got the result of a horrible paper or maybe your parents shouted at you and their words pierced you. You're possibly in a state of giving up on all humanity&hope.  But you know what?  I won't go all wise with quotes and of course it's hard but it's not the worst. There's still more to come and if you don't face any ups and downs, you aren't alive. The human tendency is to look at the negatives more th...

Page 1 of 365 At the approach of a new year, it’s a new slate, all things good for us to gain As one that waits for none; a loophole of time, a new opportunity in the form of a new year is here again. 365 days to evolve and progress, a new leaf to sprout in you For you to improve, grow and always stay true. Trudging up to the edge of 2016; into the new year, diving headfirst, With lessons and memories; for a life of knowledge, in me is a thirst. I will remember after this long and event-filled year, not to lash But realise to spread love like I own an endless stash Ignorance may be bliss but in life- this bubble of hard-hitting reality, Take a vow to be a better version; make the world yours, step by step readily. Here is your chance, beautiful soul Every regret and mistake; reminisce in how strong you’ve become, don’t let it take a toll The past is the past Do not postpone, make your worth here last Let’s work on our resolutions, face...

Hi and Hello

Hi and Hello to everyone  Okay, so I am new to this kind of exposure so please forgive me if any mistakes occur. Not everyone has to understand what I write but I hope I make people happy with what I do. If I say something that is insulting or demeaning in any manner, I promise you that isn't what I mean. To introduce myself: I would describe myself as an average 14 year old ( female ) teenager, making tons of mistakes. A teen with a passion to read, write and with support, I take one step forward to follow my dream. I am part of a big family but to give you the gist, I am one of six. I am blessed with a loving dad, he is the best and I love him more than I can ever put in words. A mother that always gives me the best and my inspiration to write and read with such endless passion. A sister, who is actually 6 years older to me. ( she's okay..I'm kidding, she is the best ms.goody two shoes i could ever have ) And my grandma :)) ahh she is such a big pillar in my l...
