no one should feel worthless. Hearing Jamey Rodemeyer's story really touched me. No one should have to deal with cutting words about their race, gender, sexuality, religion, or appearance. We often don't realize how our words and actions impact others.

i don't want to see others get hurt. i think that it's just stupid to bully anyone, since most people do it out of jealousy. well bullying won't change the fact that you're just someone who doesn't care about others but him/herself. bullying doesn't solve anything at all, but in order for the bullies to know that we all have to unite and stop them together. United we'll never be divided!

I care because I can not stop thinking that maybe the person who bully someone..doesn't really know how much pain he/she makes. Maybe they think that they words can not hurt the people. But they do. I have been bulying...and it's one of the worst feeling ever. I lost my mom, and for somehow it's pretty cool to make fun of that..I support people who doesnt feel very good..and for somehow it's pretty cool to make fun of that. And finally, I'm not perfect..and it's pretty funny call me a "STAR" {5 tips, fat, ugly, weird} yeah..words can be painful. so be careful the next time you say something
Stay strong people!! and keep smiling..you never know who can fall in love with your smile.
