FOR HER BEST FRIEND…SHE QUOTES, “I MISS YOU!”
His days were as low
as the bottom of the sea
Depressed, that’s that.
His words were unemotional,
unexpressive, unhappy
Not in his right mind.
His smile was weak,
skin pale like snow,
shaggy hair fallen in his face.
Couldn’t get out of bed,
not even to shower,
not even to eat.
That’s when I realized,
it wasn’t just a bad day he had-
it was never ending.
I guess I could say his days caught up to him,
cause now I’m reading the note he left me
saying “goodbye.”
Rest in Peace

STRENGTH
THE JEWELS’ ANGELS FOUNDATION, INC.
Strength is the ability to never give up,
Hopelessness is the determination to do so.

LITTLE REMINDERS
I’m driving home from a weekend in the Eastern Sierra Mountains. A place that has always brought me peace; except for recently, the peace has been replaced with the deepest sadness and despair.
Am I crying as I drive through the winding hills and valleys? I must be, although I don’t seem to notice much anymore, considering this an everyday occurrence.
Hopelessness washes over me as I fiddle with the iPod left behind, but has somehow become my security blanket into her mind.
Randomly the song changes from the Eagles to Blink 182, one of her favorite bands. It’s a song I have not heard, called Not Now. I intently listen to the lyrics… instantly mesmerized by them.
The song calls out to me…”God has a plan for you”
“I will be waiting”
“I wish I could give you one last kiss”
As the tears stream down my face, I look up to the mountains, covered with powdery, white snow and see a cross. As clear as day… a cross in the mountain formed from the melting snow.
At that moment a sense of comfort washes over me…she is always here with me and waiting for the day I will see her again.

LOST
Somewhere between the age of eleven and fourteen we lost her.
Please note that I don’t write and post these images and words for my own recognition or salvation…I do this so other teens and parents, who may see our site, find a sense of knowledge and or comfort, knowing that they are not alone in this.
We want to get the word out that teen depression and suicide is real and we are determined to reach out to as many readers as we can…if we can help save just one life from suicide, then our job was worth it and Jewels’ death wasn’t for nothing.

Dear Paxton:
Memories of Cole flashed across her memory, bringing a heaviness to the pit of her stomach. She quickly dismissed the feelings, telling herself that she was better off without a man like Cole. She had Joe to spend time with now, yes it was different, more like a brotherly relationship, but she was not alone.
As if Joe were inside her thoughts, the phone rang. It was Joe wanting to take Lisa out to dinner and a movie at Santa Monica Marketplace. She agreed to go.
