Find The Strength.......

Have you heard of finding the strength to go on, after a devastating occurrence happens in your life? So, often it seems that all is gone and there is no where to turn to or no one to count on. I find that during these times, is when you find your inner strength.

Perhaps it was because of my raising, that I instantly would go into my inner self, to delve for answers or ways to handle whatever came my way. It was sort of like finding my spiritual being, and reaching for the one thing that could get me through. I knew that if I believed in a higher power, that I could get through anything. And so I did.

Many times, I did not make it through the circumstances, the exact way I would have chosen to. However, it happened, I was glad just to make it, in a safe and sane manner.

Many people have commented, “I just don’t see how you did it”? Well, sometimes, you don’t even see how you did it. It just happens. Then there are certain times, when every little detail is an imprint in your mind. These times are resources, to draw upon, when things get rough, later.

Looking toward a goal or to your future, helps us get through just about anything. It’s with that, we can dream or hope for a better way, or a stable situation. Thankfulness, helps us grow and appreciate the things we have and work toward things that we long for in the distance.

One person, commented on it in this way. “Get sad, Get mad, then get Glad”. I believe these are the stages of healing our inner self and gaining the needed strength to make it. Strength, is the substance of our everyday lives. It helps us to take another step.
