One good thing about music is when it hits, you feel no pain...
"I would rather write her a song because songs don't wait to resolve and because songs mean so much to her. Stories wait for endings, but songs are brave things bold enough to sing when all they know is darkness." - TWLOHA

Open Our Eyes Hard truth: Sometime the thanks for your love & commitment for others will be rejection & abuse. We love because we must, not for results. view more
This originally started as a simple myspace for a group titled How to Save a Life based on the ideals behind The Fray's song How to Save a Life. All we wanted was love. We believed that was all it took to save a life.
Today it is a (soon to be) non-profit organization titled Open Our Eyes that believes our voice can mean something, that our voice can help save a life. Our goal is to educate our community on the following: the severity of suicide among teens, the warning signs which indicate a person is at risk, and the resources available both locally and nationally to reduce that risk. We do not take the place of talking with a medical professional. We hope to serve as a bridge to connect people with the help they need.
Open Our Eyes is a movement. It is a revolution. It is a call. It is our call.

We believe that the lesson is in the struggle not the victory. We are all one, we are all called to love. That's really all it takes.
4 out of 5 teens who attempt suicide give clear warning signs. Maybe it's time for us to open our eyes.
IMPORTANT: Talking with anyone here does not take the place of talking with a medical professional. We are not experienced in any medical field and reccommend contacting locally AltaPointe Health Systems at (251)473-4423 or nationally Yellow Ribbon at 1-800-SUICIDE for help.
"We are a community of struggle. Some of us are rich people trying to escape our lonliness. Some of us are poor folks trying to escape the cold. Some of us are addicted to drugs, and others are addicted to money. We are a broken people who need each other and God, for we have come to recognize the mess that we have created of our world and how deeply we suffer from that mess. Now we are working together to give birth to a new society within the shell of the old. Another world is possible. Another world is necessary. Another world is here." - Shane Claiborne

I have triumphed over Domestic Violence.
My horrific story is in my blog.
Please Hello, and Welcome my friend,
read and feel free to post it on your website. To help spread awareness.
I am almost finished with my book of my life and how I overcame DV thru practicing what I know about the law of attraction. My passion is to teach others how they can do it as well.
I have written most of it in my blog on an almost daily basis for the past Three months. I suggest starting on the oldest blog so it makes sense and you know who the people are.
To find the story of how I came to start writing, look for “THE BIG BANG, My husband tried to kill us both then when he failed he killed us Himself” Or “My Story” It will blow you away!
There is a lot more to the story than that. I was abused as a child then it followed me into my relationships as an adult. I HAVE TRIUMPTHED OVER DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
About this page: I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D
