To Write Love on Her Arms.

Hey, Howdy, Hey everyone!

Tonight I went to see Jamie Tworkowski on campus. Jamie is the leader of the To Write Love on Her Arms initiative. Listening to him speak kind of gave me the motivation to want to reach out more. I feel motivated to go and talk to people I've never met, and make new friends.

I believe Jamie taught us all a valuable lesson tonight. Aside from telling us the story of why he started his non-profit organization, he also gave the listeners a message about how we can make a difference in our own lives. While Jamie's organization listens to people's problems and responds to them, they can't help everyone, as much as they'd like to try.

So here I go, asking anyone who doesn't know me as a friend already, to please, send me a message. I'd LOVE to talk to you sometime. And you can trust me when I say I'm not just doing this so I can feel like I've actually done something with my life, I want to actually make new friends. If you want a close friend, hit me up. I've got time for you. I can guarantee it! Send me a message on Facebook, let's hang out, whatever, if you go to my school and just want someone to talk to, let me know. Let's go to Garvey sometime!

And if you feel like you have no one to talk to, because no one can understand your problems when it comes to depression, I'm sorry to inform you that I don't know how you feel. I can tell you right now though, that I'll be there to listen if you need me!

Also, Jamie had the singer from Sleeping at Last start off his presentation. He was a really funny guy, and he really appreciated the applause. The thing is though, he definitely deserved it. Go and check out their music, he had an amazing voice, and I bet he would love to add one more fan to their fanbase!

And in case you were wondering how I did earlier today in the Soul Calibur IV tournament, which no one probably is, the tournament never happened because not enough people showed up, but I got to meet some nice new people and the four of us just hung out for an hour and a half taking turns playing the game together. I think I might check out there club in the future as well. Who doesn't want to join a club that hangs out from 5 p.m. to midnight every Monday just playing video games? Heck yeah!

If there is anything else anyone wants said about Jamie's talk tonight, just add it in the comments, and if you'd like to know more about Jamie's initiative, Click Here!

I'll leave you with a quoted paragraph from the initiative's website:

"You were created to love and be loved.  You were meant to live life in relationship with other people, to know and be known. You need to know that your story is important and that you're part of a bigger story.  You need to know that your life matters."

Thanks for reading, and please continue to invite your friends, and check out my blog regularly! I've had quite a few page views over the past few days and I want to let you all know that it makes me feel very good! THANK YOU!
