:: Abused ::

I really like this song by TLC. They were like hot when I was in Sec school. Sec one and Sec two days... But the message that was sent through this song is very deep.

I have seen a lot of woman being abused. I mean, we can't deny the fact that majority of those who were abused are actually woman. In my workplace itself, I hear my sups telling me how their husbands hit them. And some came with the bruises on their face and body. Swollen eyes and cracked lips. They left me wondering why they still stick by these men who made them their punching bags.

Is it love that made them forgive this man or are they living in denial. Afraid to let go due to the uncertainty or insecurity. I really cannot imagine sleeping with someone whom you don't know when the next attack will be. But I guess I would never understand as I haven't really asked them the reasons behind it. One friend told me that it is because of her children and marriage that made her endure.. with a hope that he would change..

Well I really hope that all the man out there who are guilty of abusing their wives to stop and think. Do violence or all that vulgarities actually help solve all the problems. I believe the answer is obvious.
