Today I am posting about a serious matter, one that is very dear to my heart. Before you go any further...if you do not have nice things to say...please do not continue reading this post.
You may or may not know, but this month is Bullying Awareness Month.
Did you know?

Those statistics make me so sick. And although it may not be as widely recognized, the bullying does not always end with high school. Many adults are bullied for the lifestyle,career,and religious choices that they make. Sometimes a person is bullied for something that isn't their choice...for the way the look or they may possibly have a disability.
But, we CAN do something, we can take a stand against bullying.
So the next time that you think something negative about someones choices, please stop and think before saying anything. That is someones somebody special. That is someones mother,father,brother,sister or friend.
So as the old adage goes "If you can't say anything nice, please do not say anything at all"
So with that I challange you....for the rest of October try to only uplift and encourage those around you. Make someones day just a little bit better, let others know that they are important beautiful people with full lives to lead.
Just something to think about...the world sure would be a lot prettier without bullying and negativity.
