Crystal’s Journey

Crystal had always loved music. As a young child, she would often lose herself in melodies and lyrics, finding comfort and solace in the rhythm of the beat. However, as she grew older, her love for music began to fade amidst the turmoil of her inner demons. She struggled with depression and anxiety, feeling lost and alone in the world. At the young age of seven, Crystal felt that her only escape was to end her life.
But fate had other plans for Crystal. When she tried to take her own life, she was stopped by her parents and was made to sign a no suicide contract. This was a wake-up call for Crystal, making her realize the severity of her situation. She sought help and slowly but surely, she began to heal.
Years went by and Crystal was now a young adult. She was walking down the street one day when something caught her eye. It was a music store and her heart skipped a beat. She had always dreamed of learning to play an instrument, but her family couldn't afford it. Nevertheless, she couldn't resist the pull of the music store and she went inside.
As soon as she entered, she was greeted by the sight of a pink electric guitar, a keyboard, and a drum set. Crystal couldn't believe her eyes. She had always been drawn to the guitar, but the keyboard and drums also looked so enticing. Her heart ached at the thought that she could never afford lessons for any of them.
The owner of the store, seeing the sadness in Crystal's eyes, approached her. He asked her what was wrong and after hearing her story, he offered her a solution. He told her that she could have one free lesson on each instrument and then decide which one she liked best. Crystal was overwhelmed with gratitude and eagerly accepted his offer.
Over the next few weeks, Crystal attended her free lessons. Each instrument brought a different kind of joy and she found it difficult to choose just one. But as soon as she picked up the pink electric guitar, she knew it was the one for her. The color, the sound, everything about it spoke to her soul.
With dedication and passion, Crystal practiced every day and soon became quite proficient in playing the guitar. The owner of the music store was impressed by her talent and offered her a spot in the store's band. Crystal couldn't believe her luck. She had always dreamed of being in a band and now it was finally coming true.
As a member of the band, Crystal's confidence grew and her love for music was rekindled. She was finally able to express herself through her guitar, pouring out all her emotions and finding solace in the process. She had found her purpose in life and it was all because of the act of kindness shown by the music store owner.
Crystal's journey had been a difficult one, but through the healing power of music and the kindness of strangers, she had found a new lease on life. She had gone from being a suicidal seven-year-old to a talented musician, spreading joy and hope with every strum of her guitar. And as she looked back on her journey, she couldn't help but smile, grateful for the second chance she had been given.
