TWLOHA Day

Every year the organization To Write Love On Her Arms hosts T.W.L.O.H.A. day to raise awareness for depression and suicide. The tradition is to write love on your arms to show your support. I go all out. Not only do i feel strongly about the topic, but it also lets the artist in me have some fun. Here's some of the things that ended up written on my arms:

In the light of love

All shadows

Must flee

~~~ and....

I am not alone

In sadness and shadow

I am not overcome

For I am not ashamed

I will carry on

I will not bow my head

I will never back down

For I am not ashamed

My light will not fade

Its flame will shine bright

For those who walk blind 

For I am not ashamed

Hope will be faithful

I won’t let it go

I will keep it for others

For I am not ashamed

The night is over

The day is now come

I will help others see it

For I am not ashamed

My God cannot leave me

He is Darkness and Light

He holds me through trials

For I am not ashamed

He gives me my daylight

The fear will be gone

I share this sun with people

For I am not ashamed

They may not take it

They may tear me down

But I will not heed them 

For I am not ashamed

I will be patient 

Their hearts will soon open

And then they’ll know this joy

For I am not ashamed

The journey is hard

My heart’s failing fast

But I’ll keep it beating

For I am not ashamed

The sun will be dawning

As always before

And I’ll keep on waiting

For I am not ashamed

I am not alone

The sun is not gone

The darkness is my own

But I am not ashamed

(i didn't write the whole last section on my arm, just the first stanza.)
