Weathering the storm

Some days are hard.  Some weeks are hard.  Some years are hard.  And yes, it seems that some lives are harder than others.  Not everybody, in fact mostly no one, lives the life of their dreams.  It’s wildly unfair -  I agree.  Heartbreak and disappointments are part of life, part of the human experience.  As much as we would all like smooth sailing with no worries, every time someone leaves us or disappoints us, every time we realize that we are not the person we thought we were, every mistake, every disaster, every heart break, every tear weaves another thread in to the tapestry that makes up the person we are today.  Through all of this we are uniquely and unequivocally designed to tell a story only we can tell.  So hold your head high.  Embrace the scars of life.  I don’t know about you, but I have earned every scar and lived to tell the story.  I am stronger for the storm.  I am bolder.  I am wiser.  I am still standing.
