Now Playing Tracks

Today I got a detention for standing up for what I believe in.

  • Teacher:

    Write down 3 things you dislike about yourself

  • Me:

    *sits there*

  • Teacher:

    Ciara, why aren't you writing?

  • Me:

    I can't do this. I will take a zero, sorry.

  • Teacher:

    Why?

  • Me:

    Because I refuse to promote self-hate. Because some people in the world can fill out 20 of these front and back with no blank spaces and this can trigger someone.

  • Teacher:

    Ciara, you have to do it or I am sending you to the office.

  • Me:

    Okay. *gets up and walks to office*

  • ^needs more notes^

  • this is fucking stupid

ignored-once-again: broken—beautifully: thescars-behindhersmile: Someone wise once said to me“It’s funny you know, the autopsy shows that the cause of suicide was extensive strain here *points to neck*. There are so many things wrong with that statement. It wasn’t suicide. It was murder, she was murdered by society. She didn’t die from pressure to her neck. She died from all the pressure up here *points to head*. The pressure in her mind, built up by society murdered her mentally & emotionally; even before the pressure on her neck killed her physically.”
