St Louis Cardinals Baseball Quotes & Sayings

I love the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team for many reasons and they have given me some wonderful memories.

To any survivor who may be doubting whether what they've experienced is truly abuse, remember that emotional, verbal, and psychological abuse will never be, and should never be, considered part of the messy equation of a normal relationship.
