Bullies...

being bullied starts very early. And they are every where!!

Bullying can take many forms from many people... with me I found that quite a bit of the bullying I received was in the form of what would now be classified as "verbal abuse" and susposedly not talorated any more in the schools. But when I was in school, it came from everyone from classmates teasing about my name, my skinniness, my clothes to teachers calling me lazy, dumb, etc. And from my parents who also mimicked what the teachers had to say.

..and then there is the actual physical abuse one must endure... the pushing to the back of the line, the punching for being "different" (whatever the hell that is), the being pushed off of school bus seats and into the floor. And once I had blonde hair I could sit on(hated haircuts)and two boys chewed a pile of chewing gum and stuck it in my hair with great big smacks which left whealts on the side of my face. And this is just a small sample.

Then there are the threats of violence... and actual violence because of what? Why? What did I do to you? I have been kicked, hit with baseball bats, punched, hair pulled, pushed, cussed at, sexually abused and raped. Why? Because I am "different"? ..and these were not just from my peers but also adults!

what gives anyone the right to judge or condem? What gives anyone the right to treat another human being in this manner? Because they are "normal"?

and when we fight back against the injustices committed upon us... who do you think gets in trouble? Not the tormentors. Usually when I fought back I was at the breaking point and could not tolerate anymore - and I would usually "blow up" in an incredible rage. I have been totally blinded by these rages caused by injustes to my soul and to my body.
