You know, Maralite...

That's what's kept me going all these years. In fact, there were plenty of times when I felt that only God really cared about me, and that has been reason enough to live for me, at least.

Thanks.

I survived abuse and frankly am past blaming anyone, even myself.  But I am left wondering how much of that arises from a deep unshakeable faith that I mattered to a higher power, almost from birth?  We need to listen to survivors tell how they survived, that may help us help victims surive.  Peace M
