Forgive my indulgence today Gentle Reader. I just received news of the worst kind. A young man I got to know less than a year ago, who I really liked and got along with...took his own life yesterday.
I haven't known him long, just about 5 months. However, he had my friendship and a small piece of my soul. I am not an overly sentimental person, I don't cry and I try to stay strong on the outside even when I die a bit inside. This loss has left a hole in my heart and I pray for him and his soul. I pray for his family and his friends that some sense can come from this. I hope that writing this will bring me some sort of closure and understanding.
Let's diverge from this sad news and look at this from another more positive side.
YOU are important.
YOU are needed.
YOU are loved.
YOU are special.
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. We all talk about how special you are. Why do you think we talk about this so much? Because it is true. Because you need to know that you are special, loved, needed and important. I know that there are times that we all feel worthless and unloved from time to time. Most of us get blue and rebound in a day or two. This is really written for you. If your blue phases last longer than that there may be real problems and please seek professional help.
I want you to know that I love you all. Be good to each other and especially to yourself.
Until Next Time Gentle Reader,
Jaxion Rebel
