"People only see what lies above the surface; the light shimmering off the subtle waves, the beautiful movement from the wind above causing it to sway with each passing moment. What they don't see is the dark, cold presents below that's forcing that beauty out above. They don't care what lies under the surface... No one does." Jamie Reed, 19 years old.
Bullying ruins the lives of many. But for Jamie Reed, it has done more than just ruin her life; it has ruined her sense, her mind, her self worth. Leaving her wishing she could find peace at last through something in this life- death is her 'only' option to escape this cruel, deteriorating world. But, what if she found peace before it comes to an end? What if she was, in fact, found and saved from going under the surface?

Courageous
Sometimes we find our lifeline but it's not quite what we expect. Jacquie is going through a lot in her own life but she has a promise to keep. Will she break it or will she stay next to Adeline when moments come and test their already unsteady ground? "It's funny how all people see is water coming out of the sky and ruining their day. I don't see rain like that. It's soothing in a way. It falls so gracefully without a care in the world where it lands. It can land in the ocean, but you know what? It will still make a ripple and after it falls into the ocean it will stand with the rest of the drops of water, freshwater and saltwater combining. Does that stop it from shining? No. Why? Because now it joined hands with many others to make one of the most beautiful things in the world. Why can't we be like that raindrop?" She speaks out of her mind. It's not the best analogy and I honestly wouldn't have thought of such a comparison if it wasn't for Adeline. I smile up at her knowing that all she needs me to do is listen.Complete
