Allow them to open your eyes, touch your hearts, and lift the veil of this ongoing contagion.\u00a0 <!--more--><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/good-news-dispatch-reporter-submissions\/photee\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-412\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-412\" src=\"https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photee.gif\" alt=\"InterGalactic Messenger\" width=\"126\" height=\"163\" \/><\/a>Bottle Mission | Level 3 \u2013 Publish a Solution<\/h2>\n<p class=\"para-style-body\">What actions do a community of students and their teacher take to confront an epidemic of the stifling behavior of bullying?

We can improve our behavior, stand up for ourselves or step up and say that is enough, let&#8217;s do something about it. This is what the Eagle Rise Up Student Leaders have done. They have noticed and have taken responsibility for all involved in the bullying epidemic by writing a book illustrating their positive perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Within this book, the perspective of the victim, bully, and the spectator is fairly illustrated giving understanding instead of fault to each.\u00a0 There is seldom a benefit in pointing fingers of blame; instead, together we can find a workable solution that gives all involved the power to overcome the pain of the past and move forward in friendship and compassion.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_700\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-700\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/you-are-not-invisible\/6th-graders\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-699\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-700 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/6th-graders-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/6th-graders-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/6th-graders-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/6th-graders-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/igm.space\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/6th-graders-1600x1200.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cynthia Milone, 6th Grade Class<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When it comes to bullying, forced control or diminutive invalidation, all have been affected one way or another.\u00a0 Found in the pages of &#8216;You are Not Invisible&#8217; is compassion, forgiveness and a step towards healing that can change the direction of this epidemic.<\/p>\n<p>This book is a true Bottle Mission 3, for its effect will be felt throughout the world changing the point of view as it is shared from individual-to-individual until it touches all.\u00a0 The book will create a ripple of loving effects that will be felt by even those who do not get the privilege to read this fantastic book.<\/p>\n<p>In closing this article, we gladly attach a link so you can obtain a copy of this book.\u00a0 The Intergalactic Messengers send kudos to all involved in its publication.<\/p>\n<p>Available at: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/You-Are-Invisible-Cynthia-Milone\/dp\/1483496783\/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=you+are+not+invisible&amp;qid=1551976759&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amazon<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lulu.com\/shop\/cynthia-milone-and-eagles-rise-up-student-leaders\/you-are-not-invisible\/paperback\/product-23976856.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LuLu<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>America is suffering from a bullying epidemic.
