Bottle up -#BraveTogether

This month of may is the Mental Health Awareness Month and in honor of that I decided to share a recent experience I had. I wasn't really sure if I wanted to share this story but I am now because mental health isn't something it's easy to deal with and not at all something everyone over comes. It depends on the person and how much help they get. #BRAVETOGETHER

The beginning #BraveTogether

The catastrophe theory states that every outcome of a future originates from a singular, well-defined occurrence in the past. Change that occurrence and it will completely change the future. Now when I look back on sixth grade, there are two things I will always remember vividly. One, my pants ripping on stage during my first & only dance performance ever (in front of half the town) and two, Jason Davis. Jason Davis, the boy with the broken bubble.
