Do you know about the "International Symbol of Acceptance", aka the "wheelchair-heart logo"? If not, you definitely need to check out
3E Love's website and
Facebook page. I saw someone with a wheelchair-heart this summer and loved the logo, but I had no idea where to look for them. When a friend of mine posted about the wheelchair-heart logo on Facebook in September I was hooked.

3E Love says on their website, "The symbol is an attitude and a lifestyle. It's accepting one's abilities and rallying around that diversity and turning it into strength. It's loving and living life to the fullest no matter who you are and what you look like, what you can or cannot do." Photos on their facebook page is full of happy people! No pity abound! Every time I look and the symbol it makes me smile; it's fun, quirky, and reflects the best of disability culture. The 3 E's send the message to embrace, educate, and empower life with a disability.
Even Holden is showing some 3E Love on campus!

I am HOOKED on 3E Love. I'm 3E Love crazy. My boyfriend got me a sweatshirt for Valentine's Day last year and ever since then I've been hooked. I have a sweatshirt, two t-shirts, a tanktop, shorts, a messenger bag (which has a big hole in it now because it rubbed against the wheel of my scooter) and a crapload of buttons which I give out to anyone who wants them. I'm also aiming to get some of the new jewelry collection! I met Stevie, the guy who runs 3E Love, at an Abilities Expo last year, and he was so nice! I love 3E Love!!
