Patrick Stewart, Domestic Violence

My husband shared this link on Facebook today, it should have come with a warning. So I'll warn you now, this will be hard for you in some spots. Well, those of you with a heart.

I am a Star Trek fan, not a Trekkie, but a fan. Coward and I would watch The Next Generation religiously when it was on, with him doing a flight simulation with his hand to the theme song. That descriptive last sentence was to tell you that my memory of those days, is sharp and clear. There is no me misconstruing or twisting things to paint myself in a certain light, what I've shared here is REAL & the TRUTH. I share things here to share the story of me, of what happened to me, my life and my body. I also share to let other women, girls, men too--know that they're not alone. I share because if what you read makes you rethink things, and recall those moments where your inner voice told you this is wrong...then I've helped one person not live through what I had to. I have saved someone.

I've always been a fan of Patrick Stewart, aka Jean Luc Picarad, he always came across to me as; strong, intelligent and if I was lost he would be the kind of guy to save me. The following video is where Patrick Stewart is asked by a fan about his childhood and how Patrick's mother was a victim of domestic violence. All those things I thought of Patrick Stewart, we're spot on--and my respect for him has multiplied a million times.


BTW watch it ALL the way to the end.
