Another Day With…-pt 1

For the next 7 days leading up to September 10th, World Suicide Prevention Day, I want to spotlight the organization To Write Love on Her Arms (TWLOHA).  This organization has brought me hope over the years by bringing awareness to issues I have struggled with such as self-harm and thoughts of suicide.  Their theme this year is “Another day with you”. Each day I will be sharing someone or something I am glad to have another day with.

Today I am glad to have another day with you.  You, whoever you are reading this right now.  I am glad to be here to be able to share a bit of my story.  I am thankful, maybe more than I ever have been before.  I also acknowledge that it was not easy to get to this point.  I still put in hard work in therapy and remind myself daily that I am worthy of this life.
