When it hits close to home......

Earlier today someone I knew personally was shot and killed by her boyfriend. I haven't seen or spoken to her in years, but that still does not change my feeling. I don't know what led up to the shooting, but there is no reason to justify why it happened. I am saddened about the loss and in disbelief of how someone so young, life could be taken away.

This is what I'm fighting for everyday. Just when I thought I should take a break.... The subject of domestic violence is silent, but it does come to light. I just hate for it to come in the form of death. I know this has affected several people I know. I just want everyone to get out of the mentality "it can't happen to me". It can. Regardless if it happens to you or not, it happened to someone you know. That should be enough. My heart goes out to the families and love ones affected by this tragedy...
