Hello dolls. 

Recent events led me to write this article, I no longer feel like it can wait. 

Death has never been a stranger to me. I've lost a brother, an aunt, and a friend - all by the same cause. They took their own lives.

In a twisted turn of events, my 2015 has started out with two of my family pets dying, one family friend dying, and yet another one of my friends' has taken their own life.

 

I've lost so many just at the start of my year. It can't go on like this guys. 

You are here - it's for a reason! You learn and you grow, you laugh, you cry, you experience new things....it's all out there waiting for you.

There's one thought that keeps me going when I'm heading downhill: One day, someone will love me. Somebody will find me beautiful and they will tell me. On top of that, they'll find my personality twice as beautiful...and if I choose to let go, I could miss out on that. 

Please everyone, find something that keeps you moving, that keeps you striving to keep staying alive. I am so proud of you for making it this far - you can do the rest of the journey.

You mean so much to someone, and maybe you haven't met them yet. Don't ruin your chances of them finding you. They could need you more than you need them.
