This article is amazing. Linkin Park was the first band I listened to growing up. Their music connected with me during my middle school years and fit me perfectly. Chester Bennington made that band who they are today. He put so much passion in his singing and everything he did, you could feel it. I hope this article touches a lot of people and helps them realize that there's always a way out no matter what. A friend of mine committed suicide a few months ago and it was tough. It's hard to think what could drive someone to do that and what problems they're dealing with. Even in the darkest day, there's always someone out there. Reach out to friends, family, or even strangers, there's always someone. It's also important to surround yourself with good people who are positive and optimistic. The saying " birds of a feather flock together" is so true. If you're negative and always thinking bad, you will attract that kind of people. But if you're positive and always have a smile on your face, you will attract positive people and your life will be so much better. Never let anyone get you down or tell you that you're not good enough. No one is better than anyone else, it's a made-up stigma in this superficial world. If someone is trying to put you down, it's only because you're above them. Stay positive, surround yourself with positive people, and ignore the naysayers ( they're jealous of anyone that's better than them because their life sucks). If you do all of these things, you'll find out that life is a wonderful place to enjoy with friends, family, and anyone in between. The sooner you realize this, the sooner you'll really start living :)
