Please Consider

Please read and consider this post from Pat Winter's blog Gatherings.

There is a little bit too much on my plate at the minute for me to become immediately involved, but I can say from many years, in a past life, working with women who are survivors of many forms of abuse, that taking a step such as this is something very warm and positive that anyone can do.

As well, as you make your contribution, and talk about it in your immediate circle and blog about it, you are helping break down the barriers that help allow abuse to continue.

In going out and saying that survivors of abuse deserve our love and support, you are also reinforcing to them that it is not their fault this happened to them, and that everyone has the right to feel safe, anywhere, any time.

Think I am going to have to find time to go and make one.
