It’s so easy for people to hide behind a computer and spew hatred online. Be mindful of what you post on social media and how your comments could affect someone.
If you are bullied, remember my words: Do not accept anyone’s definition of you. Define yourself. Be unapologetically you, always. Bullying is often a reflection of the bully and not you. Never remain silent to a bully.
