Whenever I hear these lyrics...
I think of you. We will love you always.

Christopher Ross Carter
1.18.84 - 10.19.10
I’m coming home
I’m coming home
Tell the World I’m coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they’ve forgiven my mistakes
I’m coming home, I’m coming home
Tell the World that I’m coming

Tara Dublin: A Survivor of Bullying Speaks Out
"My heart is breaking for parents all over this country. For Hope Witsell's parents, for Asher Brown's, for Tyler Clementi's, and so many more whose names we don't know.
Bullying has always existed. We know this. It's Darwinian: survival of the fittest. But high school is hard enough to survive without worrying that someone is going to beat the everliving snot out of you, or go on Facebook to post awful pictures of you from a party. It used to be that the bullied kids occasionally came home with a bloodied nose or a ripped shirt. Now parents are finding them hanging in their own closets, shamed into killing themselves by their peers.
I was bullied terribly as a pre-teen and teenager. When Phoebe Prince took her own life, I wrote my story for the very first time. It's an ugly part of my past, but sometimes it's important to look at all the wrongs in the world so that we can make it right. Unfortunately, I don't think the kids who bully read the Huffington Post, but maybe you're the parent of a teen and you don't really know if your kid is a bully. Maybe you yourself were a bully, and you've passed that on to your kid. I believe bullying begins at home: a happy kid in a loving family probably won't go to school and mercilessly tease another student."

Are You Ready?

Above The Golden State
I pray for peace like rivers flow
I pray for joy like fountains glow
I pray for truth and grace over me
I pray for strength, this hope I believe
A faith that moves the mountains to seas, yeah, yeah
But most of all
I pray for love like Yours for me

Success: The Love Project


This started with a single tattoo for a friend.
Her love tattoo for a $25 donation to To Write Love On Her Arms.
When it became two, I made a goal. $500
It has been surpassed and the calls keep coming.
Thank you. Each and everyone of you. ♥
