for all the world’s jonah’s

I saw this video on CNN yesterday during a work meeting. There was a TV on silent near where we were all sitting. Choking back tears as I was supposed to be listening to my boss, my heart just hurt for this kid and the millions of others who ever feel alone, misunderstood, or hated for just being who they are. I did a little poking around on the web, and there seems to be some speculation as to whether this video is fake or not. If this video is fake, this young man is one of the best actors I have ever seen. I’m not sure how you could fake pain like this:

Fake or real, it ultimately makes no difference. This video brings attention to a serious issue, and if it does nothing more than make a single person stop and think before they wanted to hurt themselves, I am a huge fan.

Jonah, you do have a million reasons to be here, and we all think you are perfect just the way you are.

Let this video inspire us all today, to show a little extra love to someone you know who might be going through a tough or lonely time.
