My mother would be 69 today. But she never got to even celebrate her 35th one. Until fairly recently, I wasn't able to say out loud my mother had been yet another victim of domestic violence. I used to lie. Say she had died in an accident whenever people asked. Why did they even have to ask? I would get all red, start sweating, desperately looking for a way to change the subject. I thought that it made me a bad person somehow. Coming from a bad seed. I carried my father's crime on my shoulders for many decades. It was a heavy burden. Domestic violence doesn't only hurt the recipient of the rage. It hurts the children too. Plus having to grow up without a mother is a pain beyond words. My mother never got to see me graduating from high school. Or from med school. She never got to meet her grandchildren. She never got to LIVE! She never got to be happy. . . . #family #memories #takentoosoon #takentoosoonbutneverforgotten #rememberingmymother #domesticviolence #domesticabuse #domesticviolencekills #domesticviolenceawareness #PTSD #domesticviolencesurvivor

Have children, they said. It'll be fun, they said 🤣 . #Repost from @jhanimalconservation ・・・ What do you think of these Snow Leopard cubs? The Snow Leopards powerful build allows it to scale great steep slopes with ease. They also play a key role as both top predator and as an indicator of the health of their habitat. If Snow Leopards thrive, so will countless other species. Their biggest threat is climate change as the impact could result in the loss of up to 30% of their habitat.
