Lollll
you see her? She looks pretty happy right? Wrong. She puts on that brave face every day and no one ever suspects that her out of all people is the one struggling with self harm, eating disorders, abuse or addiction. She’s the one that goes out of her way every day to make sure everyone else is happy and never worries about herself but has attempted suicide four times and still doesn’t feel the need to get help from anyone. She never burdens other people with her problems, instead she takes it out on herself by cutting or starving herself because she truly believes she’s not good enough for anyone including herself. When you compliment her she says thank you with a bright smile but really she doesn’t believe any of it because she thinks she’s worthless. But don’t worry about it she’s been faking it since sixth grade, she’s so good at it her own mother believes the cuts on her arms were accidents and that she’s not hungry because “she had a late lunch”. She’s a wreck and no one but her sees it.
this photograph intrigues me so much! why isn’t this the most famous photo from 9/11 instead of the falling man? isn’t 2 people holding hands after jumping more significant than 1 man? it makes me wonder what the story is behind this photo, were they friends or lovers? or just strangers who were too scared to jump alone? it shows that people need a helping hand even in their final moments, i love it.
Fucking reblog today; tomorrow. Any day I see it on my dash. Beautiful. I for one think they were strangers. Sometimes it’s easier to care for a stranger, how else would they have found the courage to not only jump, but to look into someone’s eyes and jump. I don’t think I could have done that if I knew the person well.
