Strength

"That which doesn't kill us makes us stronger." ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

It's always been my little dream to be a strong person.  No matter what life brings I'd be ready to fight through it.  To never be afraid of whats ahead of me.  Every once in a while you come to a point in life where you can't seem to move foreword.  A wall of fear or guilt or failure blocks you path.  You can't go around it or under it or through it.  You just have to get over it.  Accepting failure is always a hard thing to do.  When you think back, it seems like with just a little more effort you could have done it.  Automatically, you regret what you've done.  Thinking that your the smaller person, not strong enough.  Well of course your not strong enough.  Don't let anyone tell you your good enough to do whatever you want.  Without God, you can't get anywhere.  He's the ladder that lifts us up over the wall.  You can try as much as you want to go without him, but endless failure is the only thing you'll get.

So now that you know your not perfect or strong enough to do anything alone, it's time for some good news.  Well of course we have God looking after us and letting everything happen for a reason.  Just sometimes he doesn't want you to get the easy way out.  He challenges you, kind of like a math teacher.  When difficult problems are assigned, the only way out is to try.  To stretch you muscles to the absolute extreme.  So afterwards, your a little better than you were before.  

This quote is probably my favorite ever.  It gives me a reason to live my life ever day.  Everything that pulls me down is only helping me get back up as a better person.  So for all those people out there that bully or abuse, just know that your actually doing the victim a favor.  Be the stronger person and always get back up.  Don't let something little bring you down.  Being weak and vulnerable is no way to live.  Are you strong?                                                                 
                                                                                  Be Brave!
