I just want to take this time out to write a very short entry.. My lovelys, I want you to listen closely. As a teenager I took for granted all the people I have around me, all the friends I've made. The people I knew. Every few months or so, for the past few years, someone I went to high school with dies. It saddens me deeply, because its so unexpected and shocking. All except for one were killed. It's leads me to realize, LIFE IS PRECIOUS. It's a message I had to relay to you.
I woke up this morning, and it was business as usual. I went scrolling down my newsfeed on instagram and saw that a friend of mine from high school had died. Now, while I can't give you details, I can tell you that they found his body in a park and he was murdered with a gunshot wound to the head. It hurts to know that people our age don't take a value on life. People are so quick not to care, to shoot someone, or kill them in cold blood. What has become of the world? Don't take life for granted. Your loved ones, estranged friends and family members, just let them know how much you love them. Shoot them a random text, hug them when you see them, tell them you love them, write them a letter. Remind them that you care. Life is way to short to hold grudges. Spread love and not hate. That's what I want to encourage you all to do. Spread love my beautiful readers. Challenge yourself to do something you wouldn't normally do. Do it for someone you know who has passed away. Call it THE R.I.P PROJECT. Do something everyday that you know would make them proud. Even if it's as something as little as smiling. I believe in you my darlings. Even though I don't know you -- I love you all. Knowing that people are out there listening, it gives me hope. I hope that one day, someone, somewhere will email me, letting me know exactly how much they've appreciated my words, letting me know that I've change their lives. I appreciate you all. Goodnight my beauties, and remember, life is short. Don't take it for granted.
