Sorry about my prolonged absence from my blog. Its a really long story. While I was on sabbatical something happened that changed me. A very good friend of mine was abused by her husband and he almost killed her. This experience brought close to home grave injustice that is called domestic violence. I was so flipping mad when it happened that I put her husband on blast by plastering his number all over the Internet and encouraged people to tell him not to kill his wife.
This terrifying made me open my eyes and ears to this menace of domestic abuse. Dubbed the 'indoor killer', its experienced by so many people of all races ,all over the world. People lend your voice to this crime against humanity .Don't let the victim become a corpse , because it could be your sister, mother, daughter, best friend, cousin or even you, yes you!
