Jess:
by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

I understand your need for justice. When I was dealing with my own abuse, I came to the realization that I controlled what path I would head toward. That I was in charge of my recovery. That I could not allow my own healing to wait until (if ever) justice was served. Don't allow YOUR healing and recovery to hinge on whether or not this pitiful excuse of a man serves prison time; because if you do, he continues to control you. Take back your power. Take it back right NOW. You already survived the worst of it, Jess. He can no longer abuse you. Think about that for a moment. REALLY think about what that means. And please consider seeing a counsellor in order to help you through this terrible time in your life. You didn't deserve what you lived through. You certainly deserve the help now that you have. Thank you for sharing more of your story with my visitors and me.

Don't waste away your precious life, be the winner over abuse
by: maurice

I like Darlene's change of name for her book from victim to victory. NOW Jess D as and from today you become the winner over your abuse. I can, I will, I must. with the way justice systems work and the law in most duristictions you could waste your life away stressed out wanting what is your entitlement, right and justice. You know and are intelligent enough to know your abuser may never get what he deserves. Runining your life is what he did. I from time to time get very angry and want to take the law into my own hands and really punish these abusres and molesters of the children and the young. But alas I also know many whose abusers are dead and therefore they have to get on with their lives knowing this. Jess D will you please read Darlene's comment to you. Her heart is in it for you. She know's, she does emphatise with all her visitors who tell their story wanting what ever advice help she can ofer them to begin or continue healing from their abuse. She personalised her own abuse for you to get the message. It is your (My) life NOW. Jess D get off your bottom, take action, take your life into your own hands and live it to the full. Live well, Laugh alot, Love much. Hi there, I'M SPECIAL, I AM GOING TO LOVE ME FROM THIS DAY ON. Don't Quit on yourself and your inteeligence. Look in that mirror, who is that me in the mirror. ? Think positiove,Act positve, Be positive in all you think and say to that wonderful and beautiful ME in the mirror. Hug that beautiful body of yours, be gentle and kind to it. massage and soothe away the awful memories of the abuse inflicted on it by the animalistic side of that human being. He does not deserve to be called human. Jess D now that you have confronted the Monster let go. Get on with your life. You have loving/caring people around you now to live your life to the full. You have friends who will help you. If you still are in touch with a counsellor stay with them. Let what Darlene shared with your strength. She's one very strong woman now doing great work very sincerely and is genuinely loving with her womans heart of you. I can, I will, I must Have a healthy mind in a healthy body. era go on.

you are loved
by: Teresa

I pray that you are okay.what you wrote of your current feelings, struck fear in me. I will pray for you with all my heart and soul. I want you to feel Gods love... The way I did and how it saved my sanity and life. I had to realize that only God will never fail me. Even the best people full of love cannot make me content in life. Please remember you are a child of God and he truly loves you, and you have a purpose here in life. Please give your pain to God so he can help you. I am in no way a religious freak. But very spiritual, I don't usually "push" God... But you need him, maybe more than me. I don't usually pray on my knees...I am so worried, I want you to know, I will be on my knees head to the floor in prayer for you. Love, Teresa
