That was my whole intent to give good thoughts originally to women who have or are being abused. I was corrected on my original post though, it's not just women !! And thank you, for the response, at first trouble floored me, yes I was angry, only because I had already apologized. And then I thought wait a minute, yes I have lived it but hey maybe she has too. And she said she dealt with all kinds of abuse? I honest to God am not trying to create anger, I am only trying to bring the abused women/men to a better world!!
Might I add there was a day when I wasn't allowed to speak my mind . . . but HELLO, now the Scorpio in me says, say what's on your mind!!!Thank you again, and quite frankly, I have nothing against anyone in this world, except someone that takes control of the other.
We were born alone and will die alone. In between it's up to us !!
And patronizing and speaking your mind are two different things. I see you have no problem with trouble, neither do I. I don't know her life as she doesn't know mine. My goal though is to be physically active in domestic abuse rather than typing it. You see from my past I have as you may have read panic disorder, I cannot speak in public, but one day . . . . I will voice my opinion on abuse and fight for the "underdog".
I truly do thank you again for responding!!
To you and yours,
Kam
