Sadly beautiful. If happens much too often. " Simply refusing to see" when will we open our eyes? I hope that you have many, many views. Congrats on your #1 win, Line

Sad, very sad. So many go through this and hide in the darkness because of it. Nicely expressed my friend.

How sad that people who are abused cannot find the strength to bring it out, if they could it would help bring closure. Many cases in the UK have come to light with pop stars, teachers, priests, being brought before the courts and it has helped the victims. Tom.

This happens far too often, Line. Enduring such abuse will cause the joy and hope in a woman's heart to die. You present a very sensitive perspective. Hugs, Carolyn
