View submission: Just had this revelation:
Learning to write was always a chore for me. I got my first left handed notebook in middle school. I am the youngest of 7 and my father went blind when I was two so money was always an issue for my family, so getting the notebook was a huge thing for me and my mom. One day on the way home on the bus the bully of the bus decided that I was the target of the day and he threw my notebook out the window. I had just started writing poetry and was completely devastated, and cried the whole way home. When my mom found out what the kid had done she was friends with his parents and called them. They made their son walk along the stretch of the 2 lane busy road, and collect every page they could find of my notebook. They then took the kids allowance away for a full year about bought me a dozen of the left handed notebooks! He actually turned around the bullying and started protecting the kids being bullied, myself included!!
