Be the change in today's society.

My message to young teenagers, Men & Woman who want to make a difference in someones life:

 First of all, to make a difference in someone's life, you don't have to crave attention -- be brilliant, rich, popular, beautiful or perfect. You just have to be simple minded & care enough to be there for those who desperately need it the most. However, understand that those who are truly determined to help others are not the ones who are looking for attention, or a reward in return for helping others, they're people who will go the extra mile by putting in the time, effort & hard work in pouring their heart & soul on to you by standing with you during your darkest moments, because they're willing to brave the shadows with you, as well as celebrate your greatest moments with you. They're people who will give you a sense of direction in your life, but will not give you correction. They're people who will not force their opinions on you, but will rather guide you & steer you in a path that will require you to make your own decisions throughout your life because those who are determined to help you aren't afraid to see you shine during your brightest moments. They're people who want to see you lift your own weight & be able to make the right choices in your life, on your own, so that you can fully prepare yourself for what life has to throw at you & succeed in making the right choices during rough times of your life. Most importantly, those who are determined to help you, are people who want you to be the next role models for future generations by spreading the peace, love & guidance around to help guide & mentor other young teenagers, Men & Woman who are currently going through the same, rough situations that you've gone through before in the past, for we are all in this world together & nobody is alone. For those who are feeling down & alone -- If someone offers to help you, take the chance for them to do so because it's the best choice you'll ever make & you won't regret it.

I strongly encourage those who witness or see someone feeling down or having a struggling in life, to not ignore the situation. Instead, approach the situation, ask what's wrong, give them a hand -- pull & lift them up. Why? Because they have needs just like the rest of us do. The need to feel loved, wanted, appreciated, supported & etc, but most of all, these people need motivation & inspiration the most in their lives from someone who has either been there, done that, or simply someone who cares enough to give them a hand & reassure them that everything will be okay. When you see someone down, tell them it will be okay because you're there to pick them up & help them. Give them a reason to get back up & start walking on their own two feet again, for we all aren't perfect & we all fall at some point in our lives, but that doesn't make them a failure at life. Tell them that they must pick up the pieces & try again because what doesn't kill them only makes them stronger & wiser, but unfortunately, some people don't understand or realize that because they have no support from anyone. However, the truth is that everyone is braver than they believe, stronger than they seem, & smarter than they think, but without the love & support, it makes the situation more tougher for them to handle because of the lack of determination & motivation to move forward. Without those two needs, how would anyone make it through life's struggles? Well, my advice is -- when you see someone down, try to get them to understand that periods of pain won’t last forever & that whatever situation they may be going through in their present time will only set them up to become stronger in the future. If you have too, ride the waves with them so that they feel more comfortable in whatever they're going through. Give encouraging & influencing words or messages along the way, as well as guidance & inspiration towards them as a person, as doing so will uplift their emotions & give them hope for themselves The ultimate goal here is to restore their faith completely, so that these people can grow from their experiences & become someone bigger then before.

Personally, I love helping others & I, myself have changed & made a difference in many lives through my blogs, videos & pictures posted on social media. When I see someone go through a problem or struggle whether it's in person or on social media, I first off -- do not call them a failure, because I believe in giving others help. I believe people can change for the better. I also believe there's lots of potential in everyone no matter where they currently stand in life. When I see someone down, I approach the situation & pick them up no matter how many times they've fallen down, because I believe in giving someone as many chances to become a better, more rounded person, & the way I go about making them a better, more rounded person is that I first strive to put myself in their shoes & secondly, I try understand the situation before I go about helping them. Once I know or have a understanding of what the problem is, then I slowly go about guiding them into a better path. If they happen to fall in the process, I will pick them up & not give up on them. I will strive to give consistent tips or advice about life, as well as strong encouragement & lots of inspiration because doing so will reassure them that everything will be okay & it will also lift their spirits up. It's only the right thing to do. However, in most cases, reassuring others & giving them advice when needed is not easy & can be very time consuming to handle, but I don't give up on the people I help. Do you know why? Because I want to see those who I help, succeed in life, that's why. I'm not looking for attention, I don't want to be popular, I don't want to be perfect. However, I am my own person. All I want from those who I help, is for them live a happy, healthy, peaceful & satisfying life, along with a helping hand when needed. I want those who I help to be able to have no problems or doubts with asking for my help whenever they need it. In fact, I strive to encourage those who I do help, to check back in with me periodically to see how they're doing since the last time I had helped them. I do this because I'm not someone who helps someone, runs off & then never speak to that person again. I like to establish connections with those who I help because it makes the process of helping them more easier if they ever have another problem in the future, & with my patience, hard work, effort & commitment of helping the people that I mentor, I have observed a huge difference in those who I help & have been given letters & messages thanking me for all I do for them. However, the letters & messages given to me are not why I made a difference in someone's life. I made a difference in their life because I never gave up on them. I worked, I worked & I worked. The end result of this is that I made a difference in someone's life whether I have restored their faith, completely changed their state of mind for the better, or whether I prevented them from making a wrong choice that would of been bad, or even if I have simply inspired them to be a overall, decent person of society.

P.s Always remember, life is about being a good person to society, as well as loving & helping others. Love is always the answer. Do the right thing.

If I can help others, then you can help others.
