Love is the Movement-TWLOHA
Love is the movement.
"We're called to hold our hands against the wounds of a broken world, to stop the bleeding"---Donald Miller
Tomorrow is TWLOHA day. TWLOHA stands for: To Write Love On Her Arms. This is a movement that has helped and saved so many people's lives. People who struggle with depression, thoughts of suicide, anxiety, addiction, cutting, etc. have been helped by this amazing, amazing movement. I don't really have the words to explain how much something like this could help someone like me, and I support this movement wholeheartedly! I, along with so many others will help to share and spread the movement, the movement of love by physically writing the word "LOVE" on my arms tomorrow, November 13th. (I hope to also take and post a photo of this as well).
For those of you interested in learning more about this, please check out the vision of TWLOHA. It will tell you how and why the movement began and give you the story of a girl who it all began with.
Below is a video I found from one of the "gatherings" TWLOHA has had. It begins with the story of Renee, and follows with a dance to the music A Time for Yohe, by Between the Trees.

Honor your American Soldier
Today is November 11th, the day when we honor all those who have served and fought for our freedom and all those who are still fighting. There really are no words to say except Thank you, and that doesn't even seem like enough. This is to honor all the people in my life that I know of personally that have fought or served in some way for our great country weather in war or in peace time:
My Grandpa, Clarence Vander Stoep
Jakes Grandpa, Andrew Murman
My Uncle, Conrad Vande Zandschulp
My Uncle, Jon Heie
My Brother-in-Law, Ryan Pendergrass
My Cousin, Jered Height
My Cousin, Cara Vande Zandschulp
My Friend, Sam Boland
My Friend, Jesse Boland
My Friend, Corey Ervin
My Friend, Cory Van Sloten
My Friend, Kyle Statema
This is for all of them, and all the other American Soldiers out there.
