October is both …

Domestic Violence Awareness Month

&

Bullying Prevention Month

The moment anyone tries to demean or degrade you in any way, you have to know how great you are.

Nobody would bother to beat you down if you were not a threat.

– Cicely Tyson.

Revenge is surviving, getting out, and being a better person than you were, and breaking the cycle.

– Kristy Green.

Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness.

No one deserves to be bullied.

– Barack Obama.
