Strength

Some think that strength is physical; the ability to break a plank or lift 300 pounds. But, strength is also:

– Not crying in front of your kids and pretending everything is okay
– It’s finishing a meal and walking out quietly after your finance tells you he’s not in love
– It’s saying “I love you” first
– It’s hugging the opponent who beat you by 100th of a second
– It’s remaining silent while someone cries on your shoulder
– It’s leaving an abusive relationship
– It’s saying “no”
– It’s saying “yes”
– It’s doing something everyday that scares you; no matter how big or small
– It’s moving to a new city, taking a new job, going on a blind date
– It’s voicing your opinion
– It’s letting go

Strength lies in the little things. You’re stronger than you realize.
