Entry Twenty-Three

Nov 6, 2015

“Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them." That’s what I read in the bible a few days ago.

When I first read it I thought it meant a man should not be harsh to his wife and love them throughout their marriage. Now, I wonder if I took it wrongly.

New bruises formed again today. I look like an animal with spots. Violet and black spots. He got angry with me today because I wouldn’t talk to him. I was too scared to talk when he visited because I was afraid of making him hate me more.

I wonder if he just doesn’t believe in the bible, and that’s why he doesn’t think much of being bitter towards me. I wonder if it’s because the bible is just another fairy tale book. It shouldn’t be though, since a lot of people do believe in it. It is a big part of society and history as well. So whatever I read here must have some truth in it.
