Each Day Already is a Challenge

Googling Your Own Name

Have you ever done a Google search of your own name? There are lots of Marilyn Mackenzie listings. I find it fascinating that the women who share my name are writers, pastors, artists, speakers, volunteer coordinators.

Recently, I found a quotation by one of them:

"I want women to be aware of abuse without bruising. Women should be aware of the controller, the manipulator, about being put down, being lied to. You may not even recognize this type of abuse at first but this does effect the way you live your life, the way you react to your children, family and friends."
Marilyn Mackenzie , London, Ontario, November, 2005

I really find this fascinating, since I have been a victim of this type of abuse myself.
