We have all felt the therapeutic effects of confiding our secrets in a friend, venting our frustrations to a sympathetic ear, or sharing our triumphant excitement with someone special. The HEART PROJECT wants to make sure there is always a place to go when you have something to say, always a way not only to share and get support for personal trials, confusions, and successes, but also a way for us to provide support for other members of the THP community. For this reason we have created From The Heart, an online blog and hardcopy journal where we encourage you to share your personal struggles and successes with living healthfully, how heart disease or other illness has touched your life, or whatever is on your mind. We believe that by easing the pains of our emotional hearts we can go a long way towards combating the diseases of our physical ones, so we hope that these journals offer a small way to help you do just that.
