There are no safe places any more.

There is only anger, violence, hatred, weapons, and blame.

Words get taken out of context, because one cannot grow up and handle the truth.

Responsibilities are ever-present.

Mental illness is not something to be bandied about or laughed off.

Throwing people’s issues around breeds contempt.

But you cannot use it as an excuse to not seek help.

Reaching out for answers… Looking for support.

Danger is too present.

Shutdown, shot down, carried away.

No, there are no safe places today.
