From the time I was 11 to the time I was 15, my stepfather molested me. As a result, I became pregnant. He had me scared to death of telling anyone, so I remained silent. I kept the baby (I couldn't have an abortion cus it was too late when I found out, and I couldn't give her up for adoption cus I didn't want her growing up feeling abandoned). For years, he made me believe that all that happened was my fault. When he started acting strange around my sister, I couldn't hold it in anymore. I came out about it, which caused an immense disaster. Finally, a DNA test was done by investigators and he is now in prison. Now, I am happily married and have two beautiful children. My mother doesn't have anything to do with me anymore, but my husband and children are all the family I need. Did I come out scarred? Yes, for life. But I don't let it hold me back. Why am I sharing this? Because I believe that our society tries to make it seem that when these things happen, the victims become shattered shells. I want people to see that their past doesn't have to control them.
I hope that if someone is in the same situation I was in, that this inspires them. No matter how awful things are, there is a way out. Break the cycle before the cycle breaks you.

Instead of listening to others and what happened to others.
Try to read the Holy Quran which never contradicts in anywhere.But Bible contradicts in lots of places.
Quran is for the whole humanity where Quran itself mentions that but bible is only for Christians and u get number of versions. Confused of which version to choose.
Cat stephen(Yousuf Islam -UK), Yvone Redley, MalcomX(USA) read the quran for themselves and found the truth and how to win in the world.
Be a winner. Read Quran.

My phone rang the other day and I picked it up and said hello and the person on the other end of the line said hello, it was my mother and she wanted to know why I was calling and I told her she had called me, to which we both said but my phone was ringing so I answered it. Figure that one out!
