Well, I already have decked one kid in the face. I got suspended. I got decked in the face a couple of times the next time I was in school. I couldn't see out of one eye. The worst thing is, the kid had no discipline whatsoever. Another kid tried to stab me with this weird looking device. I'm serious. About a dozen other kids said they want me dead. I would just make all of them happy when I die. I'll save them the energy.
hey dude, when I was your age I felt the same.
Im 19 now. man, way back then I got into so many fight, well s**t, i was suspended most of my middle school period.
I had people try to stab me, I had a man shoot at me, and more than once have I done fistycuffs with more than one person at a time.
So many people wanted me dead...I didnt think my parents could actually see what was going on. I had no friends in a place that noone could relate to me.
Then my father caught me with a book on suicide, both the pros and cons of it.
Worried, he confronted me, he asked me if I was serious. obviously I told him no. but it HAD crossed my mind.
He then told me: "look. think about it like this, killing yourself is the cowards way out. if you die like that, your running like a child, and your too cowardly to confront all of the problems in front of you. If you choose that, you will be dying because you weren't man enough to take it."
So I want you to ask yourself little dude, Are you man enough to go out there, and kick the hell out of your problems. Are you man enough to sit back and take it sometimes. You man enough to talk to your parents about this, or go get help?
If someone tries to hurt you, defend yourself little man, fight em. by all means. If someone calls you names, just tell them to f**k off, and keep on going.
Eventually, you will at least have one buddy by your side, screaming "f**k you" at all of those kids intent on doing you harm too.
The point is, life isn't easy. It isn't going to get easier. But by god, it gets so much more fun with every day and every challenge you force yourself to overcome.
then, and only then will you be a man, and on top of the whole, damned, world.
