A Reminder To Be Nice.
February 26th, 2024 10:00am
Today, I opened up. More than I usually do. I have struggled with depression a lot lately. I had an incident that happened over the weekend. And look, I don't blame the teenagers. They should know better, but they don't. They haven't had enough life experience to know better. But it still hurt, and had I been a teen myself, it could have ended so much worse later that night. This is your reminder to be nice. If me putting this out there helps at least one person to go the extra mile to be nice today, than my feeling of hurt and embarrassment being shared on the internet is worth it. I don't want your pity in the comments. This is simply a chance to remember that you have no idea what people are struggling with. A smile and a laugh can be a mask for a lot of other emotions.
