I was bullied as a child for being a head taller than everyone than everyone else. I wrote about it on my blog earlier this month. I don't know if you saw it. Then when I saw this statement by Pearl Buck, it really hit home and I wanted to share it.Ingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924736131382149056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-11749505470113122792010-10-24T16:10:10.618-07:002010-10-24T16:10:10.618-07:00On the topic of bullying, it brings back to mind a...On the topic of bullying, it brings back to mind a poor skinny, gangly, girl just starting Jr. High who went to get her boots out of her locker in the locker room one day. The room was filled with other kids getting coats from their own lockers. A rich and popular girl came over to the poor girl and began kicking one of her boots away from her. The poor girl crawled along the floor, trying to retrieve her boot but the rich girl kept kicking it away. The room was filled with laughter and finally the rich girl got tired and left and everyone went back to what they were doing. The poor girl tried to keep tears from falling, and swallowed hard the lump that was in her throat as she pulled her boots on and quickly ran out of the room. I'll never forget that day, and looking out of the second floor window at the rich girl as she left with her father to go home. I wiped tears from my eyes and vowed that if that was what having money, and nice things meant... I hoped I was always poor. Seeing kids bullying other kids for ANY REASON makes me very sad.

You guys are so nice.<br /><br />Ally: It is a terrible problem and I hope that it has now been brought out into the open. Maybe it will do some good, but then, people forget so soon.<br /><br />Farmchick: I am so glad you are in that field. I loved the special needs people I met through my sister. And I loved the caregivers, mostly immigrants to Sweden from Latin America, Bosnia, Turkey, and on and on. All people who work with special needs people deserve our respect and highest regard. <br /><br />Sophie: I know you pups have the ability to smell our humanity and know that we are all equal. I think if we were more like you pups, the world would be a better place.

Bullying has become more and more of a problem, but I wonder if it's just because of the media and we didn't know about it before?<br />Beautiful picture, with the visible sun rays.<br />Love Pearl S.
