Women united to win

March is Women’s History month. It is set aside as a time to celebrate those who have gone on before us and inspire those yet to come. This month will feature events and activities that will both educate the mind and uplift the spirit. It is also a time to prepare for the work ahead. Women around the world have overcome great odds, including that of domestic violence.

Sometimes relationship can seem like a battle and the heart like a battlefield. During this battle, friendly fire can occur. "Friendly-fire," is a military term that I use to describe a situation in which someone that is on your side, someone that is suppose to be there to protect you, causes you harm. Friendly-fire can be deadly. In relationships, the most grievous of all friendly-fire is infidelity. When men and women are unfaithful, they cause harm to the very person they should be protecting.
