A Story of Finding Hope...To Write Love On Her Arms...

A Story of Finding Hope...



I don't know how many of you saw this on MSNBC last night but it is a really amazing story. TWLOHA is a social network that supports people struggling with depression, addictions, and suicide. One of the amazing things about the network is that it sort of happen by accident. By a young man taking the time to write to a troubled girl online, both of their lives were changed. And now they are part of a group that changes lives everyday. We've heard the saying "Be the change you want to see in the world" well they are living it and helping others find their way as well. Please check out their website, TWLOHA.com and visit their MySpace page, to read the story of what started it all. You can also buy a t-shirt or make a donatation to help continue the cause.

To learn more about depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide click here. If you need help...it is here waiting for you.

Just remember, you are not out there alone...the world is small...all you need to do is pick up the phone or turn on the computer...Hope is out there.
