“In My Bones"
You once called me a victim
Because I did not accept
The disrespect you gave.
That’s the day
I should have walked away
Instead of fighting for something
Not worth restoring.
If ever you believed me to be a victim,
You never knew me at all.
Overcoming is in my DNA.
Surviving is in my bones.”

“Empathy is not the same as approval. And explaining something is not the same as excusing it. But if you want to change people, if you want to reduce terrible things like domestic violence, first you need to understand that such monsters do not usually come out of nowhere. They are usually created, in a stream of abuse that can go back for generations.”

“If he calls you names and/or belittles you, THAT IS ABUSE If things mysteriously go missing after you know you put them someplace, he's trying to make you look and feel crazy. THAT IS ABUSE
If he tells you or your children that you are a bad mother, THAT IS ABUSE If he insists you account for every penny and does not provide for basic necessities while feeding his wants, THAT IS ABUSE”
