I was recently told that I needed to be like someone else...........are you kidding me? My thoughts are, to that statement:
Yes, I could learn a few things from that person, but to "be" like them is nonexistent to me. God created me to be like Him in His image not to be like another human being. I will forever strive to be the BEST me, I was designed to be!
Domestic violence victims pay attention: you may be going through a tough time trying to figure yourself out but that one thing that always remain the same is...........there's only ONE of you! Nobody else can be what YOU need to be for yourself, your children, your community or this society.
Domestic violence survivors pay attention: Who are you? What defines your life right now? Is it money, family, morals, your contributions to this society, etc? Remember to always look in the mirror and acknowledge who you are! If you don't, no one else will.
Often times when a person has experienced emotional and verbal abuse, they hear degrading amd disrespectful remarks from their abusive partner as such:
"You're too fat"
"You're hair isn't long enough"
"You're stupid"
"You need implants"
"Your butt is too small/big"
"You're ugly and nobody wants you"
This list could extend the time I'm allotted here, but I pray that if any of these remarks sparked up a memory for you, that you believe that you are a beautiful human being inside and out and God designed you to do His will on this earth.
Speak POSITIVE words into your life and always be confident in who YOU are!!
BREAK THE SILENCE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!!!
