I Just Read a Really Sad Story

I just read something and watched a video that made me stick to my stomach, Today I am going to talk what I read about Amanda Todd's tragic story, my heart goes out to her family and loved ones, no one deserves to go through that. No one deserves to be bullied or hurt or feel so low that they feel the need to hurt themselves.

Amanda Todd was a beautiful young lady who made a mistake that eventually took her life. The things that she had to go through, I can relate, but definitely not in the same severity that she faced. She was 15 years old when she took her life, four hours after posting the video below to Youtube. The world is a cruel place, I only wish that people would have showed you the kindness and respect that all humans deserve.





Watching this video really hurt because I can imagine the pain and hurt that she felt. I have felt that low, I have tried to commit suicide, I have hurt myself but I have never been able to try to end my life again after the first time. And it's because sadly, unlike Amanda, I had people that were here for me that helped me see the good in the world. Amanda had no one. Her past followed her, it became her ghost, she was haunted with the mistake that she made when she was so young...Where ever she went it followed her, she couldn't escape it no matter how hard she tried. Can you imagine never being able to run away and start over? To never be able to move on from something stupid you did? I know I have made a million stupid mistakes...but thankfully people haven't held those mistakes against me. I wish someone would have shown her the same kindness. I wish someone would have treated her with the respect she deserved, the way I see it is that when you meet someone everything from before that point should not affect the relationship that you have with them. Her past should not have mattered. But sadly those people who hurt and bullied her were cruel, and too young to understand. I hope one day they realize how much they hurt not only her and her family, but also the world. God take care of her...I am sure she is in a much better place, where she can feel loved at all times...
