I really don’t know how to explain it but I just felt like I was meant to know him and to help him. He had these sad eyes that seemed to be crying for help. One thing I learned about Kory early on, is that you never know which version of him you are going to get. Some days he would be talkative, rambunctious, and completely lacking self-control, causing him to get in trouble…

    Vivian Rider My Mentor “Talk to me.” Every time I had an upset or quiet demeanor that leads to shutting myself down from friends and class participation, my elementary school teacher would constantly show her concern when nobody else would. Life isn’t easy and it took me a long time to understand that. Letting others into my life without hesitating isn’t so scary as I thought it would be. Sometimes being alone is the best, but restraining from destroying myself is being strong. What makes me…
