To Write Love on Her Arms

Today is my tribute to National To Write Love on Her Arms Day, November 13th, 2009. Friends all over my school wrote the word LOVE their arms today. (Personally, I wrote it at least 10 times on my left arm, and 4 people wrote LOVE on my right arm, and I'm still getting more!!! I'll upload pictures later.)

To Write Love on Her Arms is a non-profit organization that ministers to people dealing with, involved with, or inquisitive about Depression, Self-Injury (SI), Addiction, and Suicide, particullarly teens. They seek to support, encourage, inform, inspire, and provide a route to recovery.

It all started with a 19-year-old girl named Renee, right here in Orlando. I encourage you to read the AMAZING story of how this organization started: http://www.twloha.com/vision/story/

This is a wonderful site. Please, if you are struggling with this, look at this site. It's so encouraging, inspiring, and over-powering. I know what depression is like. I live it every single day of my life. So trust me when I say this organization has helped save my life.

I wish to include some personal notes to some of my TWLOHA friends:
