    <title>Is happines a delusion?  Need your help.</title>
    <link>http://www.happinesspages.com/happiness-blog.html#Is-happines-a-delusion?-Need-your-help.</link>
    <description>2010 is the year many people are counting on.  Last year we stumbled through yet another recession, a year of 
financial hardships, redundancies and job losses in addition to the usual life-changing events
over which we have little or no control.

Following quickly on the heels of Christmas, the new year is symbolic of new beginnings, fresh 
hopes and optimism.  Christmas is surely the biggest global focus on family.  It&#39;s up close,
in your face, from September onwards. The media hype is about families, togetherness and happiness,
though not the emotional welfare and goodness happiness, but the materialistic and ideallistic one.

Such a lengthy and concentrated focus on family happiness may serve only to reveal the fragile
foundations on which some families exist.  And yet they believe they are happy.

For some families, an aftermath of Christmas is the realisation that they are in an abusive relationship,
be that physical, mental or both.  What one partner thought to be normal ups and downs, under
close inspection is riddled with control, intimidation, abuse and ridicule.

How best does one support a friend or family member in that situation? Do we turn a blind eye, let them 
sort it out themselves or not get involved for fear of making it worse.

It is a huge &#39;can of worms&#39; I am opening here and a really complex subject.  I know there is no definitive 
solution but knowing you&#39;re not alone is a first step.

I welcome helpful comments you would be willing for me to publish on happinesspages.com on how best to support family or friends in an abusive relationship. I will of course consider each one carefully and may need to get back to you.

I look forward to hearing from you. Please &lt;a href=&quot;http://happinesspages.com/contact.html&quot;&gt;contact me here&lt;/a&gt;
 
Sincerely
