Me? A blogger?

I have to say, I never thought i would be a blogger. After seeing how powerful putting our thoughts out there can be, I decided I had to jump on the bandwagon. My main inspiration for this is that I just joined the Street Team for a non-profit organization called To Write Love On Her Arms. They work to help people struggling with addiction, depression, self injury, and suicide. They operate almost fully on the internet and rely on their Street Team to spread the word. Their mission to release the stigma associated with these problems creates a community for those of us with problems to enter into and feel safe. For someone suffering, the number one way to keep them healthy and level is for them to have a strong support group. I am someone who has that, but not everyone does. TWLOHA creates a support system for those people. For more information on what they do and to read their amazing story go to www.twloha.com
