This image is so powerful. When I saw it on Flickr, I knew I had to share it with you . . . with a quote that fits, of course.
The caption of the photo says it all:
““.
Anyway, here’s my wish for you today:
If you’ve ever suffered verbal abuse, I hope this helps you heal, if only just a little.

Kim,
Another heart touching photo. This picture breaks my heart. I so wish I could pick her up and tell her how beautiful she is and try to sooth her fingers.
Blessings
Yes, it makes me hurt for her and everyone who was the victim of a harsh comment like she suffered.
So much raw emotion in this picture and the info behind it. I am so very sad for this poor child, I hope she found some love and laughter in her life.
I agree. Wholeheartedly.
Kim – It does help. Thanks for sharing the wise words and poignant image. They touch my heart.
Thank you so much, Susan. I’m glad to hear that it did.
