“Place your hand over your heart, can you feel it? That is called purpose. You’re alive for a reason so don’t ever give up.” Speak. Love. Engage. Endure. Persevere. We are a part of a greater family than just our own. From overseas to our homes, suicide affects us all. Never feel like you need to walk this life alone. We're all in this together. As brothers and sisters from all walks of life, we all share a common theme; life. I can help, you can help.
