One of the hardest realizations I’ve ever had to face was understanding that the bullying in my life will never stop. But after finding Cybersmile nearly a year ago, I also realized that while I cannot change the behaviours of the bullies in my life, I certainly can change the ways in which I allow others’ behaviour to affect me. The support, advice, resources, articles, testimonials, forum and blog posts at Cybersmile are invaluable to me. Though I still struggle every day to overcome the effects of a lifetime of bullying, I have found the strength and tools I need to make necessary changes within my heart and mind. Through the many courageous people who have been brave enough to reach out to Cybersmile for the help, answers and support they need, I have found the courage to reach out and speak up, myself…to ask for the help I need and to offer to others who need it too. As I look back on these months I can track the powerful, positive changes in myself, and I realise that through The Cybersmile Foundation and Cybersmilers world-wide, the power belongs to me, because I’m learning how to take it away from those who cause harm. I cannot thank you all enough for being who you are and doing what you do, and for welcoming me into this community with open eyes, minds, hearts and arms. I am proud of every individual who’s a part of this extraordinary organization, and I am truly blessed to have found you when I did. Much love, gratitude and all the positive support I can give! =)
