Anti-Bully Video

This is a video I made to get back at my ex-friends. I used Mariah Carey's new song infinity to perfectly describe how I feel about them. The whole past year they have done nothing but bullied me and now I have the final say to them. The video is very special to me. I knew if I was going to get back at them.... I had to do it my way. Now the whole world knows who these people are. I hope you take the time to watch it. I really just want the world to know how I feel. I've already asked a few Mariah Carey and Celine Dion fan accounts on Instagram to help me out and they did So, if you could help me out as well. That would be fantastic!!!!! Thanks for taking the time to read this. http://youtu.be/-kQ_0ZC27Ww

Talked into Scilence

It started in fourth grade at school. A kid had just been added to our class and he seemed nice but how wrong I was. For the whole school year he would verbally assault me and even pull practical jokes on me and throw food at me. I could deal with the jokes and food but the words he spoke stopped me from telling anyone else about what he was doing. This countinued into fifth grade he still did but some of my friends found out about how long it had been going on but the teachers only caught him on some small stuff so he never got in real trouble. Over the summer between fifth and sixth grade I became happy because I thought I would never see him again. He was in my first class of the day. So the bullying countinued till the beginning of the second semester. I was act lunch the tables were separated by the students girls had one side boys the other side but every day one boy had to sit on the girls side due to space. I was just sitting there eating and that's when it happened. The kid shoved my head into my lunch tray and laghued at me. But what happened next surprised me. Some students from other classes pulled him off of me and even more surprising his own girlfriend stopped him. After that day I never saw him again but I want to forgive him and thank him even though he was the bad in all of it he help me discover the kindness in humanity and taught me never let them scilence you.

Using fear as a friend

The eleven year old kid left the building afraid as usual, not knowing what he was to find in the corner that was next to the little supermarket. As he walked down the street his biggest fear becomes a reality. Once again the kicking, pushing, hitting and name calling that has turned into a normal daily routine after school. I don't know how I survived those three years in Junior High. -You good for nothing, -you never going to make it,- F***ing ass f@*got, these are just a few of the bitter memories I have left from my younger years in old Cuba. Sometimes I thought I was never going make it. Putting an end to my life would have been easier but I couldn't do that to my parents. I knew there was a better future ahead I just didn't know how to find the path. There is more to this story but this is not the time to reveal the darker times. No, not yet.

Soon after, freedom came as we moved to Costa Rica. Slowly I started to take control of my personal life and my professional future as young teenager. Yes, there  were still struggles and yes I felt that people were looking at me and I could hear them laughing behind my back. But I kept fighting for what I wanted, still afraid of what others would think or comment. I still wanted to disappear from their presence. Fear can be your best friend or your worst enemy. I have come to make peace with the past. I learned to turn fear into my friend. This uncomfortable yet very familiar feeling taught me a lot of what I needed to learn. 

We then moved to the United States leaving my comfort zone behind and now the very familiar feeling which was fear was here to receive me in this new uncertain country. Are you going make it, or are you going to go back and hide in the darkest of shadows? I spent 6 months inside my room as I was so afraid to go out and face society. The hardest part here in the land of the free was the language barrier I was to encounter. Up to date I still know that some of you make fun of my accent when I speak, but hey I made it! God really challenged me and made situations hard for me sometimes, yet He took me to the path I hadn't visited nor seen before.

I see abuse kids killing themselves, I can totally relate to the pain and fear that is behind this uncalled for action. I don't agree nor approve of their actions but I know what they are feeling as they are thinking about ending their lives. A few years later I found a pleasant click that made me feel totally free. "Theatre" opened a whole new world of expression. No more judging of who I was or what I said. Little by little  yet still afraid, I started to set myself completely free. Then I enrolled in college, transferred to FIU and received my Bachelors Degree. Now that I have become a professional I look back and say to myself: "Wow Mr. Marrero you've made it but you still have some work to do!" I keep working hard with fear shadowing me at times as this familiar feelings seems to never go away. I still see it in the eyes of others. I know I'm different that most of them.

Even now as a professional Fashion Designer it (fear) still tries to haunt me at work with some of my colleagues. However, I've learn to push this "feeling" away and not feed into it. I know this is a journey and the best is yet to come. I have conquered what once was seen as impossible. Those who tried to hurt me only pushed me to make me stronger and wiser. I look back at the beaten kid I left behind and say to those abusers "Who is driving a Benz now??"

This is for all of you young kids and/or adults out there that are afraid. Those who are different. There is always another way. Look fear in its eyes and make it your friend and use it to empower yourself!

Fifth Grade Torment

When I was in fifth grade I was really good friends with Michaela and Orion but then eventually, Lilly and Julia joined the group. I started becoming left out. I would hear them talking about me and I would walk over and all of a sudden they are all silent. I was gaining weight and, yes I'll admit it. I didn't have good and fancy clothes like all of the other girls did. People bullied me for it. I was dating this boy named Greg for awhile and we kept breaking up and getting back together and that's when people started calling me a slut and whore. I didn't know what to do and when I thought it couldnt get any worse...my best friends ganged up on me and bullied me. They would push me in the hallway and I eventually had no friends...I still get bullied to this day and I know a lot of my other friends get bullied as well and so now I am finally deciding to stand up for whats right.

Revelation

My entire life I have been pushed around, and I am ashamed to say that I myself have bullied several people, but with that being how I was treated, I didn't know the true power of it all. I realized that what I was doing was wrong, and I have since tried to make amends to all of those I have wronged, but in my heart I know no amount of apologies will ever make up for the pain. I truly realized how what I was doing was wrong from looking at the pain I had been dealt by siblings, friends, strangers, etc. and when I heard about my little brother being picked on. That boy is one of the few reasons I have left to even be here. All the pain I've been through, I don't want ANYONE, especially not him to go through, and now I always help those in need.

hard times blue and sad

My name is kody evins I'm 20 years old I live in kalispell Montana I was born with autism. my teenage years were so hard on me its a miracle I'm still alive. I never had any friends or girlfriend in high school at all.I was mostly verbally bullied throughout my high school years. I was mostly around special ED kids in my early high school years but felt they weren't my type at all no kids would talk to me or sit with me at lunch and I never owned an iPhone because my mom would never afford one for me wich made me more of an outcast because every kid I'd see at school had an iPhone I'm also fan of classic rock music and huge fan of the band AC/DC I was surprisingly teased by kids for liking classic rock and AC/DC I guess that was because everyone was into pop and hip hop music which really upset me when I was 17 I was sent to a group home in a little town called ronan MT because my mom was doing something illegally. the bullying got extremely worse. it was also where I was first teased for liking rock music the group home kids were NOT nice to me at all they called me faggot psycho and F you. The high school in Ronan though it was small was the worst school I've ever been to I kept asking random girls out but it failed ( No thanks to the group home kids saying that's how you get a girlfriend) so I was there for 5 months and returned home to kalispell to my mom on my 18 birthday my mom will never do what she did again. I started suffering from anxiety post traumatic stress disorder and depression I even had suicidal thoughts I went back to school in kalispell but I was still alone I sadly never went to prom or graduated high school but I still want to go to collage to pursue my dreams Im now done with high school. oh and another reason why I had trouble making friends was if the kids did drugs or drinked because I have a huge hatred for drugs and alcohol. Im still friendless and my mom and I are still struggling with money. i truly believe in god and if he will help me pursue my dreams and help me find my true love of my life out there I will be the happiest person in the world and when I have kids they WILL have a happy life!

Family

Even parents or siblings can be bullies. It happens to me. If something goes wrong i am the one who always get blamed for it. I feel like crying every night, but nothing is going to fix it. I have anxiety now and I get yelled at all the time for it. I hate it. I am always called fat or dumb in my family when I'm trying my hardest. They always expect me to be perfect. Im different from them. Sometimes I even feel like I am adopted or was born into the wrong family. My sisters always say I should've never been born. I was an accident. Sometimes I wish that I wasn't born into this cruel world. Apparently to my family I always ask for everything! I barely have any summer or winter clothes. I never go shopping at all. In winter all you see me wearing is oversized sweatshirts. Also, I only get one pair of shoes every year before school and thats it. I get no more shoes. I never ask for anything, but if I do its always the same answer..."Next week when I get my paycheck". They always say that but the truth is I wait a couple of month or I don't get it at all. I feel like no one cares about me in my family sometimes. They always question me. My family friends even made fun of me when I was a kid cause I pee in my pants. It isn't my fault I was young and didnt know how to control my blatter. Everyone is always pressuring to be someone who I don't want to be and I hate ut. If i am myself I get judged. So, whats the point of the whole thing honestly. I thought everyone should be accepted for who they are not because of their looks. This world is horrible now a days and I hate it. Bullying needs to stop.
