Let me tell you a thing, about an amazing man named Patrick Stewart

I went to Comicpalooza this weekend and I was full of nervous energy as I was standing in line to ask Sir Patrick Stewart a question at his panel. I first had to thank him for a speech he had given at amnesty international about domestic violence towards women . I had only seen it a few months ago but I was still dealing with my own personal experience with a similar issue, and I didn’t know what to call it. After seeing Patrick talk so personally about it I finally was able to correctly call it abuse, in my case sexual abuse that was going to quickly turn into physical abuse as well. I didn’t feel guilty or disgusting anymore. I finally didn’t feel responsible for the abuse that was put upon me. I was finally able to start my healing process and to put that part of my life behind me.

After thanking him I asked him “Besides acting, what are you most proud of that you have done in you life (that you are willing to share with us)?”. Sir Patrick told us about how he couldn’t protect his mother from abuse in his household growing up and so in her name works with an organization called Refuge for safe houses for women and children to escape from abusive house holds. Sir Patrick Stewart learned only last year that his father had actually been suffering from PTSD after he returned from the military and was never properly treated. In his father’s name he works with an organization called Combat Stress to help those soldiers who are suffering from PTSD.

They were about to move onto the next question when Sir Patrick looked at me and asked me “My Dear, are you okay?” I said yes, and that I was finally able to move on from that part of my life. He then passionately said that it is never the woman’s fault in domestic violence, and how wrong to think that it ever is. That it is in the power of men to stop violence towards women. The moderator then asked “Do you want a hug?”

Sir Patrick didn’t even hesitate, he smiled, hopped off the stage and came over to embrace me in a hug. Which he held me there for a long while. He told me “You never have to go through that again, you’re safe now.” I couldn’t stop thanking him. His embrace was so warm and genuine. It was two people, two strangers, supporting and giving love. And when we pulled away he looked strait in my eyes, like he was promising that. He told me to take care. And I will.

Sir Patrick Stewart is an absolute roll model for men. He is an amazing man and was so kind and full of heart. I want to let everyone know to please find help if you are in a violent or abusive house hold or relationship. There are organizations and people ready to help. I had countless people after the panel thanking me for sharing the story and asking him those questions. Many said they went through similar things. You are not alone.

“You never have to go through that again, you’re safe now.”

I cried.

Me too. What an amazing man, truly.

For some reason I thought watching the video wouldn’t make me cry more than reading the story did BUT I WAS WRONG AND NOW IT IS RAINING ON MY FACE.

Anyone want an autographed copy of Brilliant!?

Thanks for your help! I've found a new owner. :)

  I'm moving in a few weeks, and as a result, I have to sell my entire book collection.

As I was sorting my paperbacks, I came across my copy of Brilliant!--signed by Kim Collier, David Hudgins, Kevin Kerr, and Jonathon Young--and thought a Sanctuary fan on tumblr might like to have it. Here's a post on Vine of me flipping through the pages (it's a very small paperback), and here's some photos of the book:

This is the play Jonathon Young did as Nikola Tesla before joining the cast of Sanctuary.

If you're interested in the book, I'm mostly just looking to recoup the original price I paid, US$14.95. I'm not interested in price-gouging because it's autographed, although if you want to offer me more money, that's cool, too. (Note: You'll still need to cover S+H separately. I live in Texas, but will ship it just about anywhere, as long as you cover the extra costs.)

I have an unsigned copy of the book, as well, if you're interested, but you can buy one of those off of Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc., so, y'know... grain of salt. I don't know that you can buy signed copies of the book online, though.

If you're interested in buying, just leave an offer in my ask box. I'll leave this post up for a couple of days before "officially" selling it to anyone, just to give folks a chance to see it.

Also, my books are my children, and I want to make sure this one goes to a good home! So, feel free to reblog!
