One of the most inspiring stories I’ve read in a very long time. If this guy can overcome the negatives in his life, anyone can. To me, of everything written, this is the most important point of all:
"I never learned to love myself," he said, later noting "And now I have realized the best way to help the people around me is to help myself. The greatest way I can impact others is by helping myself. I never thought that was possible. I thought that was selfish, and it's not selfish because if you kill yourself what good are you to anybody."
Let’s all take a look in the mirror to discover we’re worth living with.
