This WILL be sung at the concert, a human bridge will be built....From pain and fear to love and peace... 2011 is A HUGE year. A new beginning for so MANY, a healing year for so MANY. I have been getting many messages from those that have abused, which was somewhat of an "unintended" consequence... THEN AGAIN, my "message" has always been and still remains rooted in love and forgiveness.... LET'S PLEASE NOT FORGET, those that abuse ARE NOT "EVIL" OR "MONSTERS"... think with your heart... I have posted this message for 2 years... PLEASE remember, MOST that abuse were abused as a child ALSO! THAT DOES NOT MEAN that what they have done or are doing is ok, IT IS NOT. IT IS A CRIME. AS AN ADULT, they NOW HAVE A CHOICE... They NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE IF THEY MAKE THE WRONG CHOICE AND THEY NEED TO BE HEALED AND FORGIVEN...THEY WERE A "VICTIM" ONCE TOO ....

Welcome to my "blogspot", the purpose of this site is to raise awareness on all types of abuse and to encourage anyone who has been abused in ANY way, to start talking, and break the silence. I used to feel so ashamed because I was in an abusive relationship, particularly because I was a Police Officer.
Once I broke my silence, my abuser no longer had control over me....as I began to use my voice, the shame began to disipate. I was a "victim" for many years, I am an empowered "SURVIVOR" today.
When I broke my slience by calling the police, the "walls" came down, the denial I hid behind in order to survive began to fade, I began to face and "feel" all the pain from so many years of abuse.... A reporter recently asked me, "Which is worse, the physical abuse or the emotional/verbal?" I replied, "The physical abuse stops hurting and heals, the emotional abuse doesn't".
Abuse comes in MANY forms.... many abusers abuse verbally, emotionally, physically, and sexually, like my abuser did. I encourage you TO BREAK THE SILENCE. Abusers tell you to BE SILENT, I understand, but "Slience is a "silent" killer".... I know. It robs you of your soul, your spirit, it makes you feel powerless...it hurts...
Let's START TALKING and STOP ABUSE.... WE OWE IT TO OURSELVES, OUR CHILDREN...
