Maybe We Don't Have To Find Strength Somewhere ElsesteemCreated with Sketch.

Maybe it only needs to be ignited because it is there, inside of us, in every part of us.

There are days when we feel fragile and weak with absolutely no strength to move on, we keep trying to find strength from somewhere, from something but we just don't seem to find it. We feel we are just too weak for anything called "strength" to come out of us, but is that really true?

Maybe we haven't found that strength because we fail to realize that the strength we so badly need is right there, inside of us. Yes, you are stronger than you can ever imagine even though all you might seem like is "weak".

We need to remind ourselves each day of this strength which we possess and work on manifesting it

Being strong doesn't mean numbing yourself from pains or running away from your feelings. No, that isn't strength and in fact, that's unhealthy.

It means being able to let yourself feel all those emotions no matter how painful it may be (because they are meant to be felt), processing them and accepting the situation instead of running away from it (when we run and hide from our pains, they always come back and when they do, they hurt even more)

It means crying out when you need to, allowing yourself to heal and move on. No, you are not just fragile being waiting to be broken, no, you are strong but even the strong break down sometimes. But when you break down, you get back up again!

Because you have realized that there are far more better and beautiful things you could do than choosing to remain down there. You have been through alot and you were able to fight through, what is to come definitely wouldn't be above you, don't forget that!

You don't have to find strength from somewhere else or something else, you have all it takes to fight your battles. When we keep trying to find strength from places and other people, it often turns into a futile effort because we really can't count on people to always be the source of our strength.

Even when you think all you have in there are scars, there is still strength in those scars, we just need to ignite it. It's not so easy to manifest that strength that is in us but all it starts by realizing that that strength we badly need is and will always be there.

Strength is beautiful, it is what makes you feel alive, it makes you see that life is worth living. Strength is love, it is hope and it is right there, inside of you, you just need to fuel that fire and keep on moving

I have never heard of that saying, well, probably because I have never been to Ireland.... But its a wise one!

It's all about believing in ourselves and reminding ourselves that the only strenth we have is within and noth outside.

Yeah, I agree with you on that one! Looking for the right things at the wrong places won't give the result we need.

Thank you for stopping by...

This is a much needed post. We live in the weakest civilization our planet has ever seen. We avoid every stress in life by going shopping or plugging into an alternate reality. As you wisely said strength lies within us. All I need to do is remember the strife and struggles my ancestors faced and conquered to ensure I could be born. We are facing many enemies, mostly unseen, that attack us daily. Advertisements, the food we eat, attacks on culture and identity. I love this post!

Thank you so much for taking out time to read this post and I am glad you love it. We may feel weak, but we truly are not!
