Leave a Mark, and Not A Hickey

Good Morning,

Due to the recent suicides of gay teens I woke up with a lot on my mind. In a world that loves to stereotype someone based on assumptions, its disenchanting to see that people's assumptions have driven them to bully people weaker than they are since they do not fit their mode of normal.

Different is what makes all unique. Different is what breaks  up the boring of the everyday beige we see in life. No, I'm not asking you all to flip into Lady Gaga and walk out looking for trouble. However, recognizing someone whose different, regardless of race, gender or sexual identification and respecting them nonetheless is what makes us better not bitter.

This song has healed me on many days where I didn't know my own worth. Kirk Franklin's Imagine Me Its easier to hate and destroy what we don't understand, fear or hate. It takes courage to push pass that and know someone for who they truly are and not what you assume them to be.

Know your worth and stop the hate.

Positively Alexzander
