Defining Family
"I'll make up a kettle," Avery muttered as they saw my face when I was blown inside. They hurried into the kitchen. Rowan hung up my coat, and Ash wrapped me in a blanket and installed me in the ratty but comfy chair by the stove. The others drew closer.

Understanding Domestic Violence: What It Means for Families in India
Patriarchy is a societal framework that promotes and rewards men for benefiting from the exploitation and oppression of women, compelling women to accept their subordinate status.

Know Your Spirit: The Journey Within
Know Your Spirit: The Journey Within There comes a time in every person’s life when the outer world, with all its noise and chaos, fades into the background, and we are left with one resounding question: Who am I?
