Next in Line

Dear Children, I want you to be happy, With that in mind I have two things to say. Don't be like me, and find a way to make a difference. High school pushed me to my limit and continued once reaching the threshold. I don't want that for you. I want you to enjoy school, I want you to be challenged, But not enough so that everyday is a struggle to not think about ending it. I want you to enjoy life and cherish it. You should not have to wear a mask of gallows humor, You should not hid your feelings. I will be lucky if I can inspire one child. But you, you can inspire all. Find success, Find happiness, Find inner peace. Make a difference in the you community, Your nation, Even the world if you set your mind to it. You are the next in line. With this in mind, I only have two things to say...
