    "...and the only thing I want to do now is love people the exact way that they loved me."
    I finally understand myself a little bit better now. Thanks for sharing; admitting a lot of these things would have been heavy, especially in publishing them online. I look forward to following your story some more! :o)

    I remember meeting him at warped tour in Utah. he called my sister and I over and he told us about Heart Support, and then he asked us about us. at the time our home life was hard. he listened and gave advice, mainly to me. Ben just gave off this amazing feeling. he is an amazing guy. after we had finished talking and my sister and I walked away to go see a set, I felt like a whole lot better after talking to Ben.
    and Ben, you are a strong and amazing guy. thank you for sharing your story and most of all thank you for listening to us on August 1st last year. it truly means a lot to my sister and I.

    This is more honest than I thought it would be.

    Bens story has actually pulled me in more by how he went through more and more struggles in his life. His belief and strength just gave little more positive look of myself
