"My girlfriend has Down Syndrome, but I don't. People always point, stare and laugh at us. I used to care. Now I don't. Why? Because she offered to break up with me so I wouldn't have to be laughed at. I refused point blank. I love her. She is the sweetest, most amazing person ever. She inspires me to be a better person. Her LGMH!" |
About that last post. Sorry. I was reading Six Billion Secrets earlier in the day. And a fair few people were going on about how they are always hiding behind their smiles, but they want to let someone know. And it got me thinking. Anyone can help. You just have to dig deep enough. And take two shovels. That way you can help whoever it is, and dig them out. |
People stereotype. The ones who cry all the time have all the problems. Or the ones with scars. Maybe even the one no one knows. What about the ones who smile every minute of every day? What about the ones who help you with your problems? And don't even share their own? What about the ones who listen to you, go on and on, when really, they could be experiencing the same thing. What about the ones who rarely shed a tear? We should all be thinking of those hidden people. And try to help. |
