The world needs what you have, don't let suicide tell you otherwise.

Suicide doesn't care.

Suicide doesn't care if you are black or white.

Suicide doesn't care if you are from Texas or Michigan or South Korea or Italy.

Suicide doesn't care if you are 10 years old or 14 or 35 or 90.

Suicide doesn't care if your dad is an investment banker or school bus driver or a professional athlete.

Suicide doesn't care if you are a world-famous actor or comedian or musician.

Suicide doesn't care if you have tattoos or porcelain skin.

Suicide doesn't care if you are Christian or worship Buddha or don't believe in anything at all.

Suicide doesn't care if you went to college or even graduated high school.

Suicide is ruthless sneaky and it doesn't care about you.

It doesn't care about the gut-wrenching things that you are feeling as you try and fall asleep every night.

It doesn't care about the pain that your mom and little brother would feel if they lost you.

It doesn't care that it has made you a slave to your thoughts and feelings.

It doesn't care that you're confused and hurting.

Suicide doesn't deserve you.

It doesn't deserve your smile, YOU do.

It doesn't deserve the rest that you need, YOU do.

It doesn't deserve your peace, YOU do.

I'm going to be honest, I don't know how to make it better. But I will try my best. If you need to talk to someone, please reach out to me on Instagram. I don't care who you are, I want to help you find someone to talk to.

18. “But you will remember me for centuries.”

19. “Something about you makes me feel like a dangerous woman."

20. “Don’t act like it’s a bad thing to fall in love with me.”

21. “Darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.”

22. “Find me where the wild things are.”

23. “I’m high on lovin’ you.”

24. “If you’re gonna be somebody’s heartbreak, somebody’s mistake, if you’re gonna be somebody’s first time, somebody’s last time, be mine.”

25. “Don’t be afraid to take the road less traveled on.”

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

2. "It's a town full of losers/ I'm pulling out of here to win" (Thunder Road)
