In being 100% honest, I voted yes. I know I have. Heck, sometimes I still do. bullying, in my understanding, is the intentional belittling of someone. When I was little, I did it because I was and it was a learned behavior from other bullies. As I've gotten older, it's something I've done as a defense mechanism when I don't feel good about myself.

I'm ashamed of it, but I work on it every day.

I also believe that everyone has been a bully at some point. Whether active or passive, it happens. It's hard to deny it. You can hate that part of yourself, but it is still part of you.

It's okay, too.


i am not my scars and my history
i am, i am, i am who i am...i am who i am.
there are true things inside of me;
i have been afraid to see.
