A Reaction to "Some things you just don't forget" by Matthew Berry

         "Some things you just don't forget" is a powerful article written by Matthew Berry about the bullying incident between the NFL players, Richie Incogito and Jonathan Martin, and how it relates to his personal bullying struggles as a child.  This article is emotionally written, and you can tell that Berry means every word he writes.  It will strike most people close to the heart, and there is few who can not relate to the topic.  the article also does a fantastic job relating to the sports topic.  Matthew Berry uses his own experiences to cast a new light onto the situation.  He makes it clear through his own experiences the true nature of what Jonathan Martin had to deal with.  He also shows us that what Martin did was arguably the bravest thing of all.  Another thing that Berry does in his article is to teach about the bullying problem.  Some of his experiences are horrifying to hear about such as the abuse he went through in the vandalism of his property and home.  However, it is also an encouraging message to victims of bullying.  After telling the story of his past, he is still Matthew Berry.  Even though he may have been a bullying victim, he has now become successful.  this is an inspiring article that changes the way many will view the harrassment of j
Jonathan Martin.
