1 in 3 women will experience intimate partner violence at some point in her life.  Most women who leave an abusive partner leave 6 times before they finally leave for good.  What can I do to help?  What are the problems that are holding people (both men and women) in their abusive relationships and what can the average well meaning person do to get involved.  I always say the hardest of all the addictions to treat is an addition to unhealthy love.  With most addictions you focus on abstinence, finding replacements, and filling that persons world with other supports.

I'm creating a new blog space to have a place to share the BHAG (Big hairy audacious goals) dreams that float around my mind.  I often have fantasies about the way the world could be improved.  Most of these are just rough concepts, some are more developed.  The hope is that someone will grab one of these ideas and take it to the next step.  They say you should speak your dreams into being and that is what I'm wanting to do.  These ideas can go no further than my mind if I do not at least share them.  If you like anything that is written here please take it, shape it, make it your own, and share it.  I don't care about credit or money, I don't mind criticism.  I'm far from perfect and none of these ideas are remotely viable in their present form so go ahead and take a swipe at them and hopefully that will inspire me to improve them.  Thank you for reading and lets spread the possibiliseeds.
