Desperation

My heart went out to her when i heard her story three weeks ago: You could hear her disappointment and desperation in her voice as she begged as to help her. She was a victim of domestic violence, she explained in between tears. That morning her husband had beaten her up. She was bleeding, she said, and was waiting for a cousin to take her to hospital. It turn out that the beatings was regular.
The police came in to help her, but the questions is when the beating in households will stop in our community.
