May 23, 2024: Time to Reminisce

"We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward.”
⁃ Isabel Allende


It's time to reminisce. Think of a time when you were truly tested by life; a time when you were in a tight spot and you didn't know which way to go. One of two things happened. You either found a way through it or it kicked your butt. In either case, you either found out that getting your butt kicked was not fatal, or you found out you had the strength to face and come through, a very difficult situation. So then, you either, hopefully learned a lesson from the disaster, or you somehow had the strength to come out, at least okay. So the next time your mettle is tested, remember those times when you were strong enough to handle something very, very difficult. You are older and wiser now. You were an overcomer then and you are an even stronger overcomer now. Draw strength from your past triumphs, and recognize that you can win no matter what life throws at you. YOU CAN WIN!
