my English assignment

Guys This is the true way I became a brony.
Through the fire and the flames
“I am just one person, what can I do to help?” This question in particular I’ve asked countless times, more specifically two or three years ago, when I made just stared to make friends. When I made friends the shackles of loneliness fell from me and I started to see what was going on around me. That factor strengthened my resolve to spread acceptance and caring throughout the world. So I did the research implementing it all.
How I started was by looking at the global epidemic called bullying, and thought on how to combat it, all while keeping this from my friends. I researched hundreds of incidences of bullying, and their effects on the populace, suicides, homicides, mass shootings, for instance columbine. At first seeing all the damage that came, not just the physical and property damage, but the psychological and mental damage, didn’t bring me any emotion. That was until I read the notes, the damn notes filled with words of hate, malice, degradation, then there were the notes of surrender, the notes of the children that just gave up on the prospect of living, sadness, people asking god for forgiveness, and even the notes blaming god for not giving them the strength to persevere, the endless empty threats. Eventually I got so irritated up with combing through the dark to find the light, that I lost hope in humanity, because no soul stopped to think that what was happening was affecting someone. I lost so much faith that I became a recluse, I stopped talking to my friends, rode my bike, played with the neighbors, I stopped caring. I got up, went to school, came home, did my homework, chores, then went to bed, and repeated the cycle over again, each time having less and less social interaction. I fell into a deep depression, not just because of the letters, but because of the fact that I was bullied before, and thought I put it out of my head but the weight built up on me, and from what was said, those “deleted” memories had an empathetic link between me and the letters. I actually contemplated suicide myself, but then I don’t know what fueled me, some unseen force, propelled me to search for the good side of things. So I picked up my research after a year, combed through the internet with renewed vigor, and noticed things that I overlooked before, like the different groups of people offering support to those harmed, even teens going so far as to make groups in their school to focus on this epidemic with surgical precision. It was an awe inspiring thing; I couldn’t believe that I missed the most crucial thing in the entire situation. After I concluded my research, I looked to see what organizations were trying to prevent bullying; I found S.A.D.D, Students against Destructive Decisions, and saw that they didn’t try to help bullying, just the aftermath of bullying. I then went on a chat forum, and I saw a question posted, “how is the most effective way to stop bullying?” curious, I looked down at the comments, and saw many bullcrap things like “hide!” or my favorite one, “dude just stop bullying is always gonna happen, and you can’t stop it, it doesn’t take a dumbass to figure that out.” After a few lame comments I saw one that stuck out like a sore thumb, the post said ”love and tolerate” that’s all it said. So I did what any self-respecting searcher would do I looked it up. The saying “love and tolerate” is something that a bunch of people called “Bronies” came up with, now a “Brony” is an adult male fan of the show my little pony, friendship is magic. That threw me for a loop, the entire day I was asking myself “what guy would like a show for girls?” so after school I got back on the internet, and saw that these “Bronies” have done excellent work for the community, they have held auctions for charity, they play an important role in the prevention of bullying. That got me happy, that a noble group of people is putting their selves on the line to stop bullying. Granted they catch flack all the time, but what’s important is that there is a hope to stop bullying. So I joined in that legion of Bronies to what is now going on today, my friends know of my siege on violence and have taken to my side, we also created a small group in this school to combat bullying. So where as others say to leave it alone, and to let kids sort it out themselves we are out on the front lines of this war trying not to let other people die. We are a force of change, we are defenders of the common good, we are Bronies.
