“Domestic abuse, also called intimate partner violence, is the systematic suffocation of another person's spirit.”

“What does War, Murder, Genocide, Violence, Abuse, Rape, Domestic Violence, Violence Against Women & Children Have In Common? Everything...they all help destroy precious lives!”

“i would like everyone to post stories on DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS everyday on this page and keep everyone updated because everyday is DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY and networking in helping others against this abuse and helping to save lives”

“Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him.”

“All abuse and violence are abominations against humanity!”

“None of us, irrespective of our sexual preference and/or practice, imagine that we can have an intimate relationship with a partner and always have seamless harmony. Indeed, most of us assume that once the “honeymoon” period is over differences will emerge and conflicts will happen. Positively, we also assume that we will be “safe“ in those moments; that even if voices are raised and emotions expressed are intense, there will not be and should not be any abuse or any reason to be unsafe, and that the will to connect and communicate will prevail.”
