He's may not be as smart as most and at times he gets under my skin but little does he know how much I love him. Ever since we were born we've always been together and we fought like siblings do but if someone picked on one of us, you can reassure that the other one was there to defend them. Until the 8th grade and that's when everything changed. I went back to Spencer with my mom and he stayed down in McMinnville with granny and pa. That's when the rumour started. Such an evil little lie that was started by step brother has forever changed his life. Ever since then he's be harassed. It's not just at school anymore either, it's in public too. People are always making fun of him and calling him names. Thanks to my step brother, my brothers not the same boy that he use to be. He's not the happy, bubbly person that he use to be. Everyday it always, "I hate my life" or "I want to blow my brains out." I know none of you guys know who my brother is but none deserves to be treated the way he's being treated. I love my brother to death and he's one of the greatest gifts in my life and I'm glad God blessed me with a wonderful brother like him. I guess the moral here is, rumours really can change people's life and bullying is a very serious thing. I've never been the one to give lectures and during the lectures I'd usually just sleep through them but that's before this all happened. I never expected my brother to be a victim but he is and it kills me. I can't be at school to defend him or else I would. The only thing I can do is remind him how strong and brave he is for going through all of this. If it were just one bully could easily be taken care of but it's not, it's almost everyone he goes to school with. I know this isn't the next part of Apocalypse or another story but this is just something that I had to get off of my chest and you guys really do feel like family to me. So please, if you know some one or see someone being bullied, stand up for them even if you don't know who they are because who knows, you could possibly save a life because who's to say that that person won't snap and go out and take theirs instead? If you're a victim of bullying, I am so very sorry. It pains me to see people who go through this. You should talk to someone because it really does help. I hope that some you all enjoyed this even tho it's not what I usually write about, but this is a very serious subject. So please, I beg of you, if you know some one in this kind of situation reach out to the and help them, don't just sit back and let it happen. I love all of you and I hope you're all having a safe and happy holidays with your families and loved ones. <3
