I opted for it. Why not? Good advertisement.
Brought to my attention via a bulletin on myspace, actually.

"Write "LOVE" on your arm.
It's to support TWLOHA (To Write Love On Her Arms)

To Write Love On Her arms is about
cutting, depression, addiction, suicide,
and meeting those needs and talking about
things that haven't been discussed. And saying that people
are not alone and that we're called to live together
and called to love each other and we've got something
to say about pain. And there's HOPE for people.
It's about pain, failure, regret, brokenness, and broken people.
And about HOPE.
TWLOHA is an idea, a dream, a prayer, a song, a fire and a movement.

It's so amazing, and we
(everyone who supports TWLOHA)
want to get the word out about it, and to help
other people. So, to do that we're writing love on
our arms on Feb. 13.
Why on Feb 13? Well, because that's
when suicide rates are at their highest.

Please write love on your arm.
And if you could go here and read the story.. then go here and read some of the facts, just so when someone asks you why you have love on your arm, you can tell them
and share your love with them.
Then I ask, for you to write "love" on THEIR arm.
We want this to MOVE.

FACTS:
121 MILLION people world wide suffer from depression.
18 MILLION alone are in the United States.
2/3 are NEVER treated.
Untreated depression is the leading cause of SUICIDE.
Suicide is the THIRD leading cause of death
among young people. (That's US!)

Depression is treatable.
Rescue is possible."

shweet. =3
Unfortunately, no one really had the opportunity to see mine, Car accidents and bad roads prevented me from going to school and spreading the love. =p My friend was there though, so I hope she got it around a little.

Aaaand, I dont do LJ and stuff, so I'm completely retarded to anything having to do with it. =p
