Being in love Quote by Jade
“I guess its better then a suicide note? Once my father was joking and laughing about people who killed their selves. Dad that isn't even funny! Its sad.. He became serious and looked forward. Its stupid! We Jones are strong! If you kill your self then your weak and you wouldn't have lasted long in life anyways. I felt so ashamed because once before I tried to kill myself and failed because my friends saved me. For the longest time my dad wouldn't even look at me. I slowly looked around my room trying to find any memory's that I could take with me. But only bad ones came.”
