I once asked my Aunt Jennifer what made her finally leave her abuser after being with him for over a decade. She said that even after they divorced, they were still trying to work things out. However, one day she came home from a long day at work. My aunt thought she was home alone so she laid on the couch and dozed off. In her sleep, a little voice said to her ‘open your eyes.’ When she did, her ex husband was holding a tv over her head and was about to release it! She moved quickly and got out the house. It was at that moment that her inner voice finally spoke harshly to her. From that day on, she knew that if she stayed, her abuser would finally kill her. Now think for a moment…this incident happened long before flat screen televisions. Do you remember how heavy the old skool televisions were?! Jesus be a fence! I’m just glad she got out with her life. ~KJM on Flashback Friday.
