Happy Birthday to a legend - Chester Bennington

I’m out of words when it comes to talk about him and how much he means to many people, myself included. It is unbelievable how much I can miss someone I never got the chance to meet in person. Today, Chester would turn 44 years old; let us celebrate his life instead of mourning his death, for he is still with us in our hearts. My life wouldn’t have been the same without Linkin Park, and Chester was a big part of it. Wherever he is, I hope he knows he saved many of us with his music and performance. To honor this day, I decided to draw Chester and write the lyrics of Battle Symphony next to it. It is a song that gives me hope when I need it the most. There’s not a day I don’t think about him, and when I get sad about it I know that’s not the way he’d want us to remember him.
“When my time comes, forget the wrong that I’ve done. Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed” he sang. Well buddy, you left a thousand reasons to be missed, and even if you didn’t, we’d still miss you. Thank you for everything you’ve done. I will try my best to stay positive today, although I can’t help but get emotional.

I am the change


#TalindaBennington Thank you for your openness and willingness to help others share their struggles and experiences with mental health. Losing my daughters father to #Suicide only a few months after Chester was a huge eye opener for me. It truly was a battle cry and it had to be heard. We lose people daily to mental pain and torment. It’s time to #BeTheChange #EndTheStigma
I believe we are warriors to experience earth shattering grief and turn it into strength and hope for others who are struggling. The journey is long and heavy at times but you are never alone and though we can’t walk your journey for you, we can walk beside you and help catch you when you fall. Love and light to all. #Support #warrior
