RIP Chester Bennington

I'm so sad to hear about the passing of Chester Bennington. I love Linkin Park and they hold a special place in my heart.

This is because Linkin Parks albums Hybrid Theory (2000) and Meteora (2003) were there for me in my early teenage years. Linkin Park gave me support without even knowing it.

I have happy memories of sitting in art class at school when I was 15. I loved painting and creating while listening to my SONY CD player with Linkin Park's "Meteora" album blasting loudly in my ears.

Linkin Park helped me to feel and release emotions when I was growing up. I wasn't open with my communication as I am today. When I was a teenager I used to bottle up all of my emotions and hold everything inside. Music spoke what I couldn't express.

Sometimes I find the best way to recharge my energy is by being alone while listening to music as I'm empathic and a outgoing introverted personality type.

Chester Bennington made me realise that it's OK to feel all of the feelings because It's apart of being human. 

RIP Chester Bennington.
