Justice, doesn't always mean that

Someone said to me few weeks ago there is no such thing as justice. I just looked and thought, yes there must be. But he was right, there is victims all around the world suffering! But we are no longer victims, we are survivors who's tears have being heard. We are no longer oppressed and have survived the pain, sadness and guilt that was put in our life. We shouted, spoke out, told a loved one and fought for that peace that we truly deserved. But there comes a time, when you have looked at every avenue, searched more clues and again there is that word " family honour" and your back to the first step. Then you think, maybe there really is no more fight to win, even with new evidence as that word "family honour" well it just won't let you win. Then, you do think, what know! You sit there, frozen and speechless and laugh really. As you've done your crying and made yourself ill. You either let the abusers take control, as really they wouldn't now what your going through. They've done their damage, why let them take control of that space in your head.

But, we the victims who have become survivors will reach out to all the children of the world and protect you. We have learned what the word "family honour" stands for, and it means exactly what it reads. You are our family and we will be there to protect you!

Our children of this world deserve the protection that it so needs. They are our future and it's our responsibility to protect them.

Family honour and the new generation will win this war on child abuse.
