Laying The Foundation

Now, i knew that there was a problem. I knew that it was a big problem and I knew that it would not be something that i could just fix. First of all, I had to visioning* for the future. The problem in the world was that people (primaraly women) were being abused by someone in their own home. The abuse could be mental, verbal, pshycological, or physical.

The vison for the future, obviously, would be to change that. Part of the vision is to stop domestic violence altogether. In that way, if someone wasn't happy in the relationship, they would get out of it. As well, neither person in the relationship should feel higher, better, or in control of the other person.

The second part of the vision is to help all those that have been through domestic violence. Often times, domestic violence causes many tramutic disorders including but not limited to PTSD, TBI (tramautic brain injury), among other physical diabilities.
