I’m in Highschool. Things are Terrible and weird. Many people are hidden or afraid. Many people are confused and hurt. Many people are sad. Things didnt make sense often Around here. No one knows much of who they are, but all I really knew was that at the end of the day I wanted to be someone that made others feel safe. I wanted to make anyone in my company realize there was nothing to be afraid of. There was never a need for the fear of doing or saying something wrong. I wanted words said to me and things done in front of me with the idea in someone’s heart that they weren’t being judged or looked down upon.I wanted anyone standing before me to know that they could be themselves and feel at home. I wanted my friends to know that anything they said to me. Never left me. I wanted anyone in my presence to know they were cared for, and loved, and someone enjoyed who they are. No matter who they were.I wanted my friends to know that someone thought they were capable of anything. A person is in need of being safe, and a person deserves to feel kindness. Any person deserved a friend at least. Beautiful things came from the hearts that knew they didn’t have to be afraid.
