So you all know me as Mariet97. But do you know the real me? The answer is nope. I am the girl who was bullied by a huge group and I let them walk all over me. This brought me into a state of depression. Now, in a new school far away from them, I see this wasn't right. I see now that if bullies try to push you down, you have to get up and tell someone.
I was being harassed this year again and I told someone. The boy who was bullying me was expelled after he broke my leg. Next year he will be going to Catholic school since his mother heard the whole story of him bullying students. Since he is over a foot taller than me, I couldn't do anything about it.
Now, let me tell you something my favorite teacher told me. Never let anyone try to hurt you. If you do, people will hurt you. In my old school, she was the only person who helped me become happy. If it weren't for her, I would probably be dead right now. She is the reason I am now able to look at myself in the mirror and not think that I'm ugly.
The lesson here is to never let people push you down. If they do, get up and keep moving and don't let others hurt you. I can see now that someone will care. You just need to find that person by getting involved in groups. When you do this, you will make many friends and you may also find that you like it.
As in the movie "Brave" . . . "If you could change your fate, would you?"
This is an inspiring quote. It shows how Merida didn't let anything push her down and she never gave up. That's exactly what I now see. Don't EVER give up!!
