You see this girl?
She's perfectly happy 
SHE'S NOT OKAY. SHE SCARES HERSELF. SHE'S HURTING. SAVE HER.

When you just want to lay there and count your flaws,

stand up and count your strengths.

never look back

Hi, my name's Melissa.

I  have hearing loss. If you're waiting for a sad bullying story, I don't have one. All I have is the story that is mine. I was born with hearing loss. It got worse as I grew older and is still getting worse, and it's never going to get any better. However, we didn't find out about it until I was four years old. And when I was three, I fell in love with music, more specifiaclly, the piano. I wanted to learn how to play ever since that night I discovered one, and I started to learn when I was six, and now I play all the time. I also sing, which I love too.
However, I went to Clarke summer camp, at the Clarke School for Hard of Hearing and Deaf. I sang at the last night, and one counciler started crying. When I asked my mom why, she said it was because so many people with hearing loss, who are deaf, who have any kind of dissability, won't usually try something because they'll be afraid or think they won't be able to do whatever it is they want to do. It made me think of how people don't take chances in life, how more people need to have faith in themselves. I'm agnostic, so I never prayed for strength to do the "impossible", and I feel like some people think they need to rely on someone else to do something they're scared to. You don't.
All you need is determination, a love and passion to keep you going.
There's this girl, who's blind. She auditioned to be a munchkin in "The Wizard of Oz" which is the play I'm in at the moment. She didn't let her lack of sight get in the way of something she wanted to do, something that many people would've siad she wouldn't be able to do. Well guess what, she did. 

I do have a point. My point is, whatever's hard for you, you do it. You try. Even if just living through another day, trying to eat a little, not cutting, going out for a sports team, anything. If it's worth anything, you try. And try again.

if we could only turn back time\\\\\\\\\\\\\

I am the ocean,
I am the sea,
 There is a world inside of me.
