6×6 Mindfulness: An open letter to bullies

"As a young girl studying in 5th grade, I would arrive every morning to school with a hungry stomach. Not cause my parents didn't feed me, cause a few people snatched away my breakfast in the van. To me, the corridors of my school was never like a place for learning, it was rather like a place for fears, embarrassments and humiliations.

You may not call yourself a "BULLY" but you know who you are the best.

You may be Cyber bully those who post hateful and harsh comments and posts, online. Once my Instagram account was hacked and reported and deleted by a person in my school just because he/she hated me. From then one, my mum never allowed me to touch that app in my phone.

You maybe the children who bully people of the same age as you just because they have a different ethnic background.

You maybe the teacher who ignores students by pretending you didn't see them raising their hand, just because of some stupid grudge you had with the student.

You may be the people who hate one just because they have a different sexual orientation.

But nevertheless, thank you.

Thanks for making me stronger! Yep, stronger, not strong. Cause I was already strong and you were weak. I only became stronger cause of you and you became weaker. So, thanks.

Here's a small advice for you, don't try to cover your cowardly within by that veil of arrogance. Thank you very much once again!"

These words inside the double quotes were said by Mercury, when she was asked by us whether she wants to speak up anything to the network. She wanted to write an open letter to bullies. Thank you dear Mercury for your letter.

Bullying is the most common violence in our society today. Approximately 3.2 million people are the victims of bullying each year.

Somehow, people find it comforting to put other people down even though their comments are hurtful, maybe that's the reason why cyber bullying in the year 2020 - 2021 has increased. Their targets are mostly girls and those part of LGBTQ.

There are 85% of teens who are use social media. And among them, almost 36% of people feel atleast once in their lifetime that they are being cyber bullied. Almost 17% have reported it within a month.

Hope there will be cooperation between humans and these harsh actions shall come to an end.

Dear good humans, let's obey our ultimate law that is humanity, that's a kind request from our side. Rest is up to you. Have a good day! ☺
