Scenario 1
Suddenly this thing hit me unexpectedly:
*The shock of a car accident
*or a doctor’s report of cancer
The shock seeps into my body and paralyses me. Fear grips me and I stiffen. I have no right answers and I become a victim of a force too strong for me.
Scenario 2
*Alcohol has got hold of my husband/ my child/ close family member again and now I have to deal with the pain of hearing and telling lie after lie. I have to cover up their dirt and deception out of fear caused by manipulation.
* Intimidated and hurt by words, I crawl back into my shell. I am a victim of injury. How much longer, Lord? Can’t You stop it? I have no other place of to go; no other dependent. I do not have a job. Where should I go?
