[ambleside09]

"...the body of Christ coming alive to meet her needs, to write love on her arms." LOVE THAT!

[Nickluvr2014]

i always have love written on my arms :)

[DinosaurJr169]

Listen to the band STUMBLE INN to hear good newer folk music!!!

thanks!!

[Goestothemayor]

@DinosaurJr169 pedro's better

[alaynagirl11]

are you freaking kidding?!

they took off the sound for this video.

fuck you guys.

[xxBlackDragonessxx]

between the trees support these guys-theyve got a song called 'A Time for Yohe'-is that somit to do with rennee??

like Yohe wise type thing

[crashedxox]

yeah, they wrote the song for her.

[alaynagirl11]

& the way she feels.

renee was in it.

[lizz9ie]

both "A Time for Yohe" and "The Way She Feels" were written about Renee and actually the first verse of "A time for Yohe" was written by Renee in her journal, and Ryan was reading her journal and asked Renee if he could use it in a song

[wallatini]

the song on this was so beautiful.. please fix this i love to listen to it, get it authorised!!

[whatsanegg443]

ermm..

is to write love on her arms a band or an orginization

or both?

[bindelbum]

orginization...

[BaconLadd]

a song by hawthorne heights dude

[paramoresuperfan]

i totally support this organization cuz it means that somebody cares about depression!!!

[hybrid55]

i thought dat the band that made this is soooo kool =) i totaly support

[kyla7003]

wow, i thought 'to write love on her arms' was a band, so its acutally like a program to help people who are depressed and need help and stuff like that ?

[hsmgirl001]

I thought "to write love on her arms" was a band too.. lol

[liambf]

so this is an organization that is based off of a story and sells t shirts. i'm depressed. what does it do for me to see people wearing t shirts?

[domdabom101]

they help depressed people by showing them theyre not alone, its a non profit organisation so selling tshirts is just a means of raising funds, your comment really doesnt express how you are depressed at all or you would be more sympathetic to this organisation

[harmonium212]

That's a really beautiful story, thanks so much for posting this :) Love really is the movement, the answer to every problem we struggle with each day. There is hope in the stars, and hope for all of us, once we decide to let love -- and God -- in <3

[bethhishh]

It kind of upsets me when I hear that because we are supporters of TWLOHA, we have been in similar situation. This, is untrue however and it bothers me that people think this. I am a supporter, but I have indeed never done anything like this. I'm not saying that there aren't people who are supporters and have gone through similar situations. Just, please don't be hypocritical.

[XxXFaerietteXxX]

i have love written on my arm

[tbsjazz14]

Is renne a real girl???

[carebearlover69]

yes she is

[volleyet1]

Its not the fact that she did stuff to harm her body, its why she did it.

Its that she was running from something.

Her thoughts, her life, her past, her future, only she knows.

Everyone has a battle to fight some, our tougher than others, and some don't know how to handle it.

She tried to give up, and blur out her life, but then someone swooped down and save her, by loving her and treating her like a princess.

If you can't understand that, then don't even bother looking at videos like this

[zoocrewsk8er]

Snorting/Swalling pills..Drinking Alchohal...and smokin weed, make weekends much more fun..and isnt somthing to cry about or cut yourself about..stupid emo's are fucked up.

Weed is tha shit.

[Teestrynashuffle]

Kay... You should gtfo this video. And go find something else too do.. it's not something too tease ppl about, that'll just make it worse and harder for them. Leave them the fuck alone. If you ain't gonna help..Don't try and make it worse.

[Avariella94]

shut the hell up!

we don't do it because of the damn drugs!

and if some do its only because they're too deep in them.

why the hell do you damn people mess with this? its not a joke! this is real. and it hurts, it hurts to be alone. if you don't know that feeling, well woop de do for you. but i do and so do others so if your not going to help, leave this alone.

[KaylinKiwi]

Wow you're cool.

Oh and by the way, if you think emos are bad, in my opinion drug users are just as bad, because they are pussies. running away from the world by chemicals. Not knowing how to think right. If you think cutting is bad then drugs should be too. You're still hurting yourself. So seriously, go ruin yourself, go have "fun", go be "emo", and get the fuck off this video you druggy.

and if you wanna get really fucked up,

Try a Brompton Cocktail. :)

(look it up)

[yoyoyosarahindahouse]

umm, i self harm and i can't stop, it's like some kind of addiction, i need advice on how to stop can someone help??

[Starrise57]

i know this will seem cliche, but... i've got experience.

tell a friend. tell someone you can trust.

you're partway there already-- you've said you want to stop

[briarrosedawn]

I understand completely. Try to find things you can do instead. A really good one is that when you really want to cut get an ice cube and squeeze it in you hand...it sounds silly, but it has helped me.

[weliveintheforest]

video is too slow, it's frustrating to read. fast forward.

[BreeBabyyOhMyy]

Im on the TWLOHA street team...

It is such a great thing for people to come together and care about people. <3

[pianorokr101]

wooh go mcfd1827 say what you feel

[MMMProductions101]

sweeetnesss

[sims2luver66]

this is beautiful =)

[KinkMonster2012]

i dontt get what to write love on her arms is... sum one help

[animeluver1395]

ok my church did a serman on this

this girl abused her self, and cut words onto her arm

i think she put "hopeless" or something

and her friends are saying write "love" on her arms, to let her know that people care for her

[Teestrynashuffle]

SHe wrote "fuck up" those ppl wanted toohelp her.

[jbshicks]

its to help case awairness to suicide and how just a simple kindness of writing love on her arm could be the difference of life and death for some people

[Violencedefined666]

People like those pathetic wastes of space dont appreciate the gift of life they've been blessed with, and if they dont appreciate it, they dont deserve it. Things can always be worse, and they do nothing to make it better. Life is a blessing, they treat it like a burden, they dont deserve the life theyve been given, so let them all die.

[kid24213]

shut the fuck up!! u have no idea what ur saying. yes life is a blessing but then try to make it that way for everyone not just fuck the people who are struggling.

[Violencedefined666]

I know exactly what I'm saying. And how can you expect anyone else to help them, when they cant help themselves, they use their friends as a crutch because they're to weak to survive on their own.

[StarttheRevolution09]

and that's exactly why people

have friends, because they love eachother.

life is a blessing and sometimes people get misguided, that's why there is always someone around that will help them. like this story.

they might use them as a crutch for awhile but then they learn to walk on their own again.

[xxelenibabiixx]

shut up! :) okay,you don't know anything. it's a REAL problem. but wut there who need help why would they all the sudden because of ONE girl change everything and want to help everyone?!

people have had it worseee.

[mcfd1827]

and its the people like you, who put down all the people who need the help, who maybe all they need is some one, a friend if u will to show them that life IS WORTH IT! so by sitting here bashing them u are NO BETTER than the people u claim they are, u are pathetic, realize that if ur not part of the solution ur part of the problem. so life is a blessing, be part of it and help, ur WASTING the life u were given by not HELPING the people who honestly need it!

[iXdontXcaereX]

wow....thats all i can really say...this really like, spoke to me, if that doesnt sound to corny. the song, the story, everything. absolutely beautiful, im not a christian, but this truley was wonderful, thank you for posting this

[lolarose230]

cool vid cuz im a recvoring cutter and i did it because of my pain

[playforthemusic]

How could you say something os hurtful? These people are in pain and this is a story of hope. We live in a messed up world. We all make mistakes. This movie is about healing.

[Violencedefined666]

HarlequinNightmare, two words in your comment made me realize what all of these fuckin cutters need to do...SUCK IT THE FUCK UP!!!!

[kdimplez22]

your an idiot ...straight up no words can be more fitting than those to explain u after writing that . you dont know what someones going threw or how they feel till uv experienced it too.

[callmeinthemorning]

look to the stars...

[navybaby94]

twloha i believe in it :-)

[Pamathey]

Hm.

Amen.

[MikeySaysThat]

You don't have be a christian for this to speak to you, as an Athiest this is still so beautiful

[GiveNoobsCameras]

agreed. thats what makes it so beautiful. it speaks to soo many.

[tt814u]

WOW! This really spoke to me. I've been a cutter for a while and this really reminded me of who God is.

[CourtneyThompson28]

go you guys who are saying stuff about her or him, get over yourselves! i love this story, and what to write love on her arms does!

[loveotters21]

baicacatule...dude most ppl who are suicidal or drug addicts either hav a mental problem they cant help or hav had a screwed up childhood with no love or friends...THEY CANT HELP IT!!! THATS WHY PPL NEED TO HELP THEM!!

[themadbatter]

you know what; that girl rennee isnt a

FUCK UP. YOU ARE.

[themadbatter]

dude; your a faggot.

you must be the most cold hearted person

on youtube.

some people have deep problems and need help.

you dont DESERVE to be on this page.

so why dont yew go off and FUCK YOURSELF!

[damxdadixdo]

baicactule

FUCK YOU! Harm us? they will fucking not.

There not serial killers, they are people that have problems and hard lives and they need support and someone to reach out to them. And you are telling them to die?!!!!

You are a pathetic asshole! They arent all emo either, anyone can cut or commit suicide. You really need to watch what you fucking say on here. Your so cold hearted. WHY DONT YOU GO DIE?!

[RHCP188316]

people who help those in need. media heroes might save the world every saturday but real heroes save the world one at a time =)

[xXwhytheliesXx]

Im crying, because I know the love of God and I pushed it away. I have been foolish. I can't imagine now knowing the love of our Savior and Lord. I can only hope that He answeres my plee for forgivness, even though I don't deserve it.♥

[Mitchie300]

If you know the love of god; you should know, he always forgives you, especially when you know what you've done wrong, and, are willing to change that .

[xomwahkinzyxo]

this story is amaazing. ive always been a christian. but ive grown farther away from god. and from church. but this story has made me realize how much your missing in life without christ.

[madelinelovesyouuu]

i love this story. more than anything. i used to cut like, a lot. and ive attempted suicide more than once. ive so many scars and whatnot, its kind of ridiculous. but because of TWLOHA and my friends and the love from them and from god, ive been clean for 6 months. [= ive been trying to stop for 4 years, and this is the farthest ive ever gotten...

thank you for posting this video. [[[=

[CCTigers10]

God is so amazing!!! some people ask why does God let us suffer..well we must go through a valley to stand upon the mountain of God! If we never had trials in life then everything would be easy but there would be no use for faith. It's like haveing a friend but not teling them anything or sharing anything with them they r there but they arent needed. it's easy to praise God when things are going great but it shows your true faith when you praise him through the storms that life throws your way

[SKATERwithHEART]

i just ordered my shirt.

[jimmyface121]

me too

[Imnotemojustweird]

emo lover, prayer won't help anything, besides if god exists why would he let us suffer like we have ? does he enjoy seeing our pain? if he does that's sick. and truelly, i see no point in worshiping some old dead guy that can't help your life in any way.

[ZAYLOS1]

he does this so that we can learn.... not as a punishmesnt but like ummm how can i put this.... he puts everyone thru a diff path although they all might be similar in some way... and he does this so that we all my learn someting diff or learn the same thing but in diff ways.....ummmm of i didnt make much sence its cuz im half asleep...lol... but i think you can work around and see wat im trying to say....

[laxxxlover]

i agree completely

[GiveNoobsCameras]

- We suffer because we are imperfect. We all don't deserve anything good in this world. We all our poor excuses for beings. We neglect God.

- He hates seeing us in pain. He hates seeing us without Him. Those without Him are in most pain.

- God is not an old dead guy. He is eternal.

He helps those who seek Him. He also helps those who do not have Him, but tragically, those who do not seek Him quite often go so far as to deny Him, so they fail to see the help and guidance he provides.

[IJustSawUPickUrNose]

@Imnotemojustweird dude youre so right. There's no point in worshipping something you dont know thats there or trying to use something in the sky as a fuckin crutch.

[bean0329]

wow.......thats....saaaaaadddd­dddd :(:(

[xxiamleyablack13xx]

wow, i cry tears of both joy and pain

joy because it is so inspiting

pain because i can closely relate

i wish i could meet renee she sounds like a beautiful spirit with a lot of baggage

thank you for working to inspire the world

[adamish0t]

I know nothing?

[tabby337]

you know nothing...

[adamish0t]

first off emo lover prayer means shit k? second off angelwing maybe YOU can enjoy life but maybe thats because (I'm assuming) your parents are rich and propeross, you have a loving family, and you have no reason to kill yourself? so really try to think deeper k? *sigh* dumbasses

[Kenasuie]

Really? Prayer doesn't help? Maybe beacause neglecting God & not having faith in him doesn't help I've put faith, praise, & song in God & good things happen! Ever heard that results don't happen if you don't put effort into them?

[GiveNoobsCameras]

Actually, statistics show more prosperous and wealthy people commit suicide more often. Happiness and self-satisfaction is not found in wealth and riches, Adam.

Now family is another story, IF you do not believe that God is our true father. People who live and rely on worldly items become VERY depressed if they have no one to turn to (such as family) in times of crisis. This is what TWLOHA is all about.

[GiveNoobsCameras]

- NO ONE should have ANY reason to kill themselves, regardless of what they personally think.

- And is emo-lover supposed to be an insult?? If so, I'm so sorry for loving people... Maybe it's insensitive people like you (who don't love certain types of people and don't try to look past their faults) that is causing the world to be the garbage it is today.

[jimmyface121]

Alright. Nearly everyone involved with to write love on her arms, such as myself, has suffered with either depression cutting or addiction. And God Heals. He helped me, Renee, Jamie, Everyone he sees. There is nothing He cant do. Even in the darkest corners of your life God can Save you from anything. And dont use the term "emo." Its terms like that make people feel worthless. Also, being wealthy means nothing. I suffered depresseion and cutting and my rentels have a shiny penney.

[xLoveInMusicx]

This is truly beautiful! I completely support this cause, and it is so inspiring.

To the comment below: yes, depression is a disease. But don't you realize that diseases can be treated? It helps people realize that they aren't alone, and that there is hope left. I know several people who were prepared to kill themselves, then found this cause on facebook and are still alive today because of it. And some of those people have actually went out and gotten themselves help?

[emolover70]

wow you really dont ge tdepression do you it is pretty much a diesise whic can only be hilled through either self desructin or prayer

[angelwings43]

i see the meaning to this but people really neddt o be happy and enjoy life!!

[flutelove09]

Believe it or not, there are people who truly have no reason to be happy with their lives, and so they throw themselves into this awful downward spiral of drugs and cutting and hopelessness... TWLOHA is an amazing concept to me, reaching those who seem unreachable, giving love to those who have never been loved....

[soporificaddicted]

i can totally relate to her its like ive done everything in this story n i understand alot of it, n havent quite got better , just less fucked up .... working progress cuz nobody have been in this shoes i walk in, so getting better/clean/n healled n makeinging a few mistakes along the way, one day ill get there , just not today,

[ATLaddict15]

To Write Love On Her Arm's is a good organization. Renee's story has taught me alot, and has showed me so much more. I write LOVE on my arm everyday. People ask, I tell them the story. I wear the shirts people ask where I got it, instead of telling them wear I got it, I tell them the story behind it. I was saved when I heard this story.

Thank you.

[a44grassfairy2014]

tears tears tears i cry at the story of renee restless restless restless nights at the thought of what she went through who knows what could stop the pain other than love all the same tears tears tears i cry at the story of renee

'''' ''''

**** **** " ..

|^^^^^^^^^^|

<3Aub<3

[a44grassfairy2014]

i fully support to write love on her arms and does anyone know where to get the shirts? plz! and i actually wrote love on my arms and people asked what it meant and i told them this story

[Holly926]

This was an amazing story,

thank you for posting this<3

[katietight]

Thank you for posting this story - I was moved beyond words.

[XIDED]

I hope the fag that wrote this song, recorded it, and subsequently raped my ears goes and shoots up a lethal dose of heroin. Giving the drug dealer a hundred bucks would be the closest thing to helping the world the douchebag could do.

[Jipina123]

OMG u have no heart you stupid shit dont you understand the point of this story?

[crazyrainbowsocks]

wow.

God is love.

He rescues us when we need it.=]]

[daskrokodilvomnil]

god doesnt exist <_<

[GiveNoobsCameras]

No need to incite a fight here.

Some choose to believe and have hope.

Some believe humans have it all figured out.

It pisses me off that there are fights and wars and not a peaceful existence between so many people due to a difference in religious beliefs.

[daskrokodilvomnil]

hey, i dont want to fight ^^

he/she said what he/she thinks

so do i

thats it =)

[crazyrainbowsocks]

Thanks.

People really need to keep it to themselves.

=]]and thats what i think.

[GiveNoobsCameras]

True, but this whole video does convey a sense of support and love from God. It has, in what many see, a religious message.

If you see interviews on YouTube with Renee Yohe, she speaks of God. So of course, there is bound to be discussion of God being love, etc etc.

Your reply was not relevant to the video, but more directed towards crazyrainbow.

[a44grassfairy2014]

AMEN!

[hotlovenrockets]

r.i.p casey calvert

i miss you

[hannahjanewithers]

i think this story should be written to Jeff buckleys song "hallelujah"...

[bbritttanyy]

jeff buckleys song hallelujah is a good song, i dont know why someone said it was a bad comment. but i think the song provided is appropriate enough. twloha has helped me feel like i'm not alone, life is a struggle down that road, and recovery is almost impossible alone. thankfully i haven't backslided, seeing as how i didn't have the support most are given. I pray for everyone who didn't have somebody <3

[BavarianSnack]

and they'll shoot you first. Look at ants. Why don't they kill eachother? Well, they do. Only with other colonies. They go their whole lives knowing that unless they're royalty, they'll never have fun or sex or whatever. But that's... uhh...I lost my train of thought. It's 2:10 a.m. Rate my comments what you will. I don't care.

[BavarianSnack]

Tch.

Everyone is so ready to "care". Just go around showing this video. Giving money to an orginization. Getting choked up at a video with sappy music.

To truely care is to be ready to take these people into your life and be their best friend. Orginizations and whatnot say even one helps. One is peanuts. You have to be ready to take the whole frickin world, the good, the bad, and especially the ugly, and be personal best friends with everyone. True caring is divine. Simply impossible.

[BavarianSnack]

The only thing getting "love" tatooed on your arm will get depressed people is a world full of people who pretend to care so much they get love tatooed on their arm. Truthfully, I am not one to be speaking about this topic; I have no firsthand experience. But I know that there is no possible way to get everyone depressed with friends. Of course there are going to be casualties. It can't be stopped the way society is today.

[BavarianSnack]

Nearly everyone is so bitchy about how hard their life sucks that they forget about everyone else. It's caring that matters. Look back in the 1800's. Hardly any teen suicide. People today don't have to help their dads shovel cow shit for basic survival. Just thought of another thing. Abuse from people you trust (trusted?). The way society works, it's hard to get away from. But why? Stupid laws making it that way. Too late, their 2 weeks past and they have a gun. Try to tell anyone what they did

[supbrittanysc00l]

i'm so far from being christian, or being into the whole "god" thing, but this is by far, one of the most moving things i've ever come across. i used to cut a lot, and i have my scars to prove it. i thought i was a "freak" because of it, but now i know that i'm not alone. this is the most amazing and motivating things that i've ever seen, and i now plan on doing my part on helping spread the word. TWLOHA, forever.<3

[cowsquack13]

brittany, from reading your comment, i am moved. although i never struggled with cutting, i know the feelings and depression you went though, i go through it everday. it really hit home for me to read your comment and see that you know, your not alone!...

[cowsquack13]

...continued... your in my prayers and im aware your not close to God but, He is just screaming for me to tell you, "He loves you and He is right next to you and never left! He has plains for you Brittany! with every struggle and action that you will make through life, He knows them, but he still choose YOU!

Thank you for this video, it is an inspiration and provides hope to guys like Adam. There isnt a nobler cause to give to!

[irishmenrock93]

my friend cuts.

it kills me when i see this stuff

[sytycdfreek]

I have way to many people close to me who do. way way way to many. Ive tried to get help for almost all of them- with no luck. So now I find it ALMOSt, almost normal. I wonder how that'll make me turn out when I grow up?

[GiveNoobsCameras]

You'll probably be desensitized, like most of our society. I'm not saying it to be mean, or that people that cut are idiots...but it is so true.

Our society is beginning to turn the the other cheek to people with these types of problems, because they are beginning to see it as a normality of our society. The majority is desensitized when these people need help.

[HarlequinNightmare]

compassionate and understanding to the adults who still suffer from these issues because their parents told them to suck it up...but you're not the only one who finds themself getting ALMOST used to it in a "normal" way...but what is normal anyway?

[sk8ab]

i cut and its because of the bastards who go picking on other people they no cant fight back. and its funny how one of the people that made me start is now the only person i trust with that secret and i love her a lot.

[SKevanescenceFan]

i love this orginization, i bought SO many shirts, just because the money was going to an amazing cause!

[coolty545]

Does this organazation have a website? I'd love to learn more about it, and join when I'm older. It's truly inspiring to know that someone was healed in such a short amount of time, especially after all she had been through. Miracles come in strange ways, I guess. God bless.

Yeah. TWLOHA is a non profit organization that reaches out and raises money for depressed people.

Amazing!!!

[GiveNoobsCameras]

I know...this is personally my favorite video I have ever made. I love the music. I love the story. TWLOHA needs to be more widely known. Its such a great organization!!!

[monza5]

Gotta love twloha (to write love on her arm).
