So today during the twenty percent of the class period we had to decide on what my topic could be. Of course, the usual came over me, wanting to build a car, wanting to learn how to fly a plane, or even learning how to drive. I realized that all these topics centered around a common basis, they all benefited me.
Knowing this, I wanted to help others, rather than myself. I don't care so much about what I want but what others want. One major problem that surrounds me and one of the few topics that really get to me... suicide.
I have decided to devote my twenty time project to making a suicide prevention blog, using blogger. I want to use this to provide comfort and make people battling this sick and twisted disease. I want them to find something they can relate to. That they can read this and feel loved.
I will work to post one of these posts every Friday, and hopefully get some feedback from whomever reads my blog. So I ca connect with people outside my life that is battling this illness. I will research the rates of suicide per state in the United States and also all over the world. I will research the causes of this, as well as hopefully hearing stories from people who read this blog.
My goal in doing this is to reach out to a population greater than what is known to me. To hopefully change the lives of people who are struggling with this, or make them feel better about themselves. This is not a self-esteem blog, this is a suicide prevention blog. A blog that is devote to help a greater cause, then to fulfill my personal greed.
