ABUSE: What good does it do?
What is abuse?
In my own understanding, abuse is the use of a thing or treatment of a person in a way that is demeaning, derogatory and insulting.

Abuse is destructive
Physical abuse by beating is damaging to the psyche and mentality of both the victim and the abuser. The victim goes on living life always in fear, and the abuser goes on living life always with a burden of guilt gnawing at their hearts.

Verbal abuse is damaging to the person being abused verbally, and the person doing the vernal abuse. The person being abused carries the stigma of the abusive words in his mind, sometimes for a lifetime. The person doing the verbal abuse bears the burden of guilt of being abusive, and usually becomes more abusive over time as a result of this.
Abuse comes in all forms, in all shapes and in all sizes... But however and wherever abuse occurs, it is destructive in all ramifications.
let's discipline ourselves to mitigate against abusive behaviour against anyone or anything.

Well @abasinkanga...this is a subject I feel very strongly about .
.if you read some my older posts I have 21 years of experience dealing with abuse ...physical. .emotional...verbal...financial and sexual...lucky me....so many people fight the cause ...but it's never enough ....there just needs to be awareness....so many times somebody you love is being abused and you would never know...you get good at hiding it...you don't need practice making up excuses it comes to you right away ...thanks for bringing awareness in your post :) :) Kayleigh
Yes indeed! Awareness helps, talking about it too helps. Its crazy! Abuse of one sort or the other occurs on relatively all levels right from the sublimal level, to the all blown out in your face level...
The best way to combat abuse is to strengthen your inner man, and remain good to yourself and to others in all situations.
The apostle Paul hit the nail on the head when he wrote "do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good"
Yes ...I'm happy that you feel so strongly about this issue :) :) I can feel your energy and passion over here reading it.. :) :)
Wherever abuse occurs, it always relate the nature of the enviroment ones finds him/herself. I think the introduction of proper moral upbringing is the key to reduce it to the bearest minimum possible.
Yes. Thats a good solution too. We are living in an age of moral decadence however
