Loving Leo
"Love is a many splendored thing. Love lifts us up where we belong. All you need is love." This blog is about love. Love for all things great and small. Love for everyone and anyone. Love for today. My inspiration is the late Leo Buscaglia, USC professor of Love 1A. With Leo’s words for guidance, I set out to motivate the world to love. <3

Hey, Tumblr. We’re back with another round-up for Mental Health Month. This batch o’ blogs are resources you can turn to and organizations you can rely on. The best part is that they’re so, so easy to access and utilize. Here are just a few of them.
Crisis Text Line (@crisistextline)
Crisis Text Line is free, 24/7 support. If you’re in crisis, please text 741741 from anywhere in the US. The Crisis Text Line will connect you with a trained Crisis Counselor. If you don’t need to use their services, consider signing up to be part of their services. All it takes to become trained in crisis counseling is a desire to listen and help others.
To Write Love on Her Arms (@twloha)
To Write Love on Her Arms started as a Myspace post. Since it took off, they’ve donated more than $1.5 million to treatment and recovery programs, granting funding to 73 different organizations and counseling practices. They have a pretty good repository for finding help, with listings easily found either by location or reason you’re seeking help.
The Trevor Project (@thetrevorproject)
The Trevor Project is one of the leading national organizations providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to LGBTQ+ youth. You can call their trained counselors at 1-866-488-7386, use TrevorText by texting “TREVOR” to 1-202-304-1200, or reach out via TrevorChat.
National Alliance on Mental Illness (@namiorg)
When it comes to making the world a better, more understanding place for mental health, NAMI (nearly) does it all. Across the US they educate to make sure people are getting the help they need, they advocate for public policy, and they listen. You can reach the NAMIHelpLine at 1-800-950-NAMI (6264) or [email protected].
It Gets Better (@itgetsbetterproject)
It Gets Better Project wants to create and inspire change for LGBTQ+ youth. While they do suggest hotlines to call for immediate help (like The Trevor Project), their primary objective is to spread the message that, well, it gets better.
If you don’t live in the US, you may haven noticed most of these are US-based resources. Don’t worry. We have you covered too.

We’re celebrating another LGBTQ influencer for #BlackHistoryMonth!
Laverne Cox became the first openly transgender person to be nominated for a Primetime Emmy for her iconic role as our favorite hairdresser with a troubled past on Orange is the New Black. Since her big break on Netflix, she has been regarded as one of the most influential people in the trans community, and continues to fight for gender equality. We love you, Laverne!

I just felt like writing this today. Wise words from one of my favorite humans ever. He said it a long time ago, but still relevant to everything that’s happening lately.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Tumblr. 💖
Today we’re working with the Ad Council (@lovehasnolabels) to spread the message that love has no labels, and to encourage everyone to treat each other equally—no matter their race, disability, sexuality, gender, or religion. If you have a story, photo, or any other kind of art that describes what “love has no labels” means to you, we want to see it. Post it with the tags #lovehasnolabels and #postitforward so everyone on Tumblr can find it.

An interview of the Jewish father said that they would be having dinner together soon.
Heartwarming photo of a Muslim girl and Jewish boy fighting for the same rights along with their fathers.

The United States is a country of immigrants. We are united by our differences, and we are stronger together. I dare us all to be worthy of the Statue of Liberty. She is a beacon. She is a sentinel. She is a gift, and she is a privilege. “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
