One Minute Thoughts

School

School is for learning right? Then why do some kids fear school? Why do some kids wake up everyday scared to walk into a building and learn some facts on different subjects? Well I've found the answer and you probably could've guessed it. Bullies. Bullying is something many kids face everyday and it needs to stop.

What's the point in bullying anyways? To get even? To feed that hunger inside of you to hurt others? If you think that's right then you need help. I think it's wrong and sick. I've had my share of bullying experiences and believe me it's not fun. One reason bullying still exists today is because a lot of people handle it the wrong way. They think by gossiping or punching them square in the face will clear things up for them. But that's simply not true. You've got to stand up for yourself!

But before you do that you need to realize you deserve respect. You are worthy of all the attention and kindness for a normal human being. When you go to stand up for yourself remember that and let those ideas empower you. When you do confront the bully, don't make threats or say anything stupid or immature. Make the words that come out of your mouth count. Lastly, stand by the words you said and be confident.
