Black Dot
People who are in abusive situations have banded together to tell the world about abuse with the Black Dot program
Comments are rampant about it being foolish, they are not washing their hands, they need not stay in abuse, but the mockers don't know anything about abuse.
One little thing like the black dot can help raise the awareness in our society of abuse.
We abuse our selves by over eating, dieting and other things but that is self abuse
The worst abuse is when someone we love and who supposedly loves us is either verbally or physically abusive to us or our families.
We may have a friend who is abused and ask "Sally where did you get the bruise" and her answer usually is " I ran into something"
and we choose to believe and do nothing for her.
Bullying is also abuse and it occurs more and more each day.
If we make your beliefs look ridiculous we are the winners
We were told to love one another but some how it has disappeared and has become an oddity rather than the norm
We mock what threatens us because we fear what we see as goodness and we are unable to be as caring to others resulting in someone making the other feel less because they are different
November is national abuse awareness month
Make a difference and support the people who are showing the Black Dot
They are asking for your help
Please give it to them
