Lifestyle
For the lives that we love, and everything that comes with it.
Into the Lion's Den
If you forget to water a flower, it'll surely die. If you run over a flower garden, it'll fight to survive. With people it's the same concept. When I was in my mid-twenties I met a boy who was three years my junior. For whatever reason, I fell madly in love and that blinded me so badly that I led him ruin me. He stole everything I knew right before my eyes and I never did a thing to stop it. He was the love of my life, or so I had thought. He was the true love I had dedicated my life to trying to find. But he was the most toxic person I had ever met. He was draining the life from me and I never even realized it. For three years I fought for a little boy that didn't even want a future with me. Not even after I had our daughter. He was constantly in and out of our lives and when I had finally bent over backwards to keep him happy I got kicked while I was down.

The Loved Less Swine
Hi, my name is Debbie, and in 2005 I was sexually assaulted by my ex boyfriend. I never reported it, because I guess in many ways I thought I deserved it, especially for how I treated him in the beginning of our relationship, which was horrible. I was head over heels for him, but by the time I realized it, he was gone and I’d pay for that for years to come.

Thoughts on the Death of Billy Graham
So Billy Graham died. What an impact this man has had on my life. But not in the sense most would think. LOVE, is not what came to my mind when I read of Billy Graham's passing. My mind was filled with sadness, longing, and loneliness. A feeling of being totally and utterly alone...and so empty. I have often wondered if that is how I feel when thinking of Billy Graham, how did his own children feel about a father virtually absent from their lives? Were the sacrifices truly worth it? I just don't know. I have learned long ago not to believe the public pictures.

How to Make Sure Time Really Is Up for Sexual Harrassment
Several people that I have chosen to share my story with have told me that I could write a book about my life. I assume this is because they think that what I have experienced is not normal. But more and more, the media and feminist campaigns like “Time’s Up” are exposing cases of sexual abuse and showing us that sexual harassment is the norm. It happens too often, to too many people.
