Past and future,

Ever met someone whose wrist are filled with scars? Ever looked at them, and started criticizing them at the back of your mind?
You'll definitely think, why must he/she be doing this to him/herself? Harming and hurting themselves. But hey, to them, using physical abuse to get rid of those emotional pain, might be the only way they thought of. No one knows what they're going through, no one will ever understand.
Don't criticize, don't judge, don't assume.
Everyone have their own problems. Some share it with their closest, some kept it with themselves and suffer. Don't ask why they keep it to themselves, cause most of the time, it's because they don't think others will ever understand. Some are just afraid that they'll be adding more problems to their closest(whom might already have their own problems to face)
Don't blame them for harming themselves. Don't judge them by the lines on their wrist.
Be nice to those who ever thought of suicidal. Be kind to those who used self-harm to forget pain. Instead of judging them, why not spare some time, and talk to them? Listen to their pain, lending them a pair of listening ears and relive some of their sorrows in them.
If there's friends out there whom have suicidal thoughts, stop doing it. I know that's the "only" way you thought it could relive emotional pain, but the fact is, it doesn't! It'll only hurt the people around you, seeing you harming yourself yet can't help.
I won't deny that I never did such silly stuffs before, because the fact is, I really did. I did it when I broke up with my ex boyfriend. I did it when I feel ultimately stress for school. I did it when I quarreled with my family. I did it when I'm down.
It hurts the people who's around me, knowing that someone they cared are self-harming. It leaves ugly scars on yourself. Yes, it'll heal, but the scar will remain. And it'll stay forever, even when it fades off, it'll still be visible. And all these scars, will always remind you of the reason why you self-harm.
Don't let your past haunt you down.
