Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.

Not living on street
Oldest daughter loves me again
My cat
-My health and mobility
-DS and everyone on it
-At least not having grown up like the kids on the street in Calcutta and Delhi (seen it... they must be in such pain, it made me feel like such a wimp. I have a party compared to them!)
- Chicken and corn soup, mmm!
-Pasta
-Tea. I am always desolate if I run out!
- Being able to do volunteer work, and the wonderful people I have met through that.
-Everyone who discovered and safely extols the virtues of natural medicine. So much of it helps me without doing harm.
-Interesting books
There must be loads more when I think... but this is a great exercise and has made me feel loads better just in this two minutes!
Thanks Andrea and everyone for sharing, and glad we all have things to be thankful for :) xx
