"Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out."
~Edwin Markham ~
We can all be victims if we choose to be. Life is difficult and we all have our turn in the barrel. But we also have the power of honesty available to us, and we can take ownership of our part in things and make conscious choices to improve the way that we are experiencing our situation.
We can whine or we can find a way to turn our hardships into fertilizer and evolve. The things we survive make us stronger, and taller, and give us depth by growing us roots.
The more I go through and learn from, the more substantial I become.
