When the world gets on top of people sometimes its kind of hard to pick yourself back up again.
The fear of never being good enough and then the world trampling you down and preventing you from succeeding in life.
That's what it feels like to them, but they never let it show. They let it eat them up inside rather than getting help. And people only realize when its too late.
i am going to walk you through someones life that deals with this and goes to extreme measures to prevent the pain but this impacts badly on family and friends, leading to more pain than was originally started with.
This will become clear as you read through my short story in the perspective of a person who finds it difficult to put on a smile every morning and hide how they truly feel.

Outsider
This story is for my little brother. He was the best man I ever knew, and he died too young. No, he didn't leave this life the way I tell it in this story (it is, after all, a work of fiction), but he might have had things played out a little differently than they did. Childhood sexual abuse is alive and well in America and the larger world as well. Rodney and I lived it, and that basic fact served as the seed that made this story possible. Much of what you are about to read is true. Just as much is pure fiction. You'll get that (in spades) as the book progresses. The idea of another, better life waiting "out there" somewhere is a constant of most religions, but this is not a book about any religion or, really, the afterlife. It is a story about escape and hope.Complete
