Meme with Meaning
This comes from Vickithecute who got it by way of nicim who snagged it from my wise and wonderful Candoor.
This quote comes from nicim:
"...it's important to understand that the broken hearts, damaged lives and pain caused from physical, mental, emotional, or psychological abuse happens to real people. People you've laughed with, cried with, and come to know so well, and whose lives you share every time you come here...
Imagine how many people we could touch if each of us here in Diaryland dedicated a single entry to get this message out to all our various and sundry readers.
...The places you can call, or go, or even email. Or give to someone, anyone, else who needs them."
Got the call that my services are not required at per diem job #1 tonight, so I'm off for supper out with a friend. We plan to eat too many appetizers, drink too much and quite possibly sing "Love Stinks" on karaoke. Have a good night and thanks for reading.
