The Power of Purple

Last night I attended an event to end domestic violence.  It was a powerful program of awareness and education.  Kudos to the people who organized and supported this evening.  The event featured resources, a panel discussion and a keynote address by the very funny author and humorist, Gina Barreca.

My reaction to this well thought out evening is simple:
I want my three girls to be strong, be brave, be confident, know their value and appreciate the good relationships and moments in their life. 

The program featured a TED video.  This video was well done and an eye opener.  Really, if you have important women in your life, you have a responsibility to watch this.


Paper peeps, It's real, it's serious and we should all do something to make sure that these horrible statistics start to change.

It was an amazing evening. Thanks for being there. May there come a time (hopefully in our lifetime) when domestic abuse no longer exists.
