Good to have you back, Ruth. Much love to you, dear sister.
I have been guilty of being domestically abusive myself. I suffer from guilt, internal pain and shame, because of the kind of abuse I have heaped in my home. It has mainly been against my dear mother, though I did not think much about it then. I thought I was justified since I was the one in pain. I thought I was the victim and kept heaping abuses, not realizing what I was doing. What I did was wrong and unacceptable. I have no excuses to offer. I only wish my mother had enough self-respect to take a stand against my unacceptable behaviors. Heart-felt and honest communication is the only route out of domestic violence. Seek help if you have to. Say NO to domestic violence. Be aware of your rights for no one has to undergo abuse in this world. Abusers will not understand if you do not make it clear that you are an individual and have your own rights. Unfortunately, I know this from being a perpertrator. However, I resolve to be a normal and a good man to my mother, using only decent communication. I repent before the living ALL spirit of the universe, as it is the witness.
