writing from the darkness

This small reading from the story was very moving. You can look at your own life and be thankful for what you have. Today people can be different and express themselves with less ridicule from the outside world. Yes, I know there will always be people judging and disagreeing with your feelings but, it is still okay for you to feel the way you do and express yourself. I could not imagine living in a time where you were teased and tormented for being different. I am glad that in today's society freedom of expression is so important.
