A meme with meaning
2005-08-27 ~ 11:28 p.m.

This comes from Nicim who got it from Candoor. She said it best so I'll quote:

"...it's important to understand that the broken hearts, damaged lives and pain caused from physical, mental, emotional, or psychological abuse happens to real people. People you've laughed with, cried with, and come to know so well, and whose lives you share every time you come here...

Imagine how many people we could touch if each of us here in Diaryland dedicated a single entry to get this message out to all our various and sundry readers.

...The places you can call, or go, or even email. Or give to someone, anyone, else who needs them."
