My truths about self are important To me but, can be different from others. I ‘ve wiped tears from my cheeks from being knocked down. I’ve told myself, fail I will not; personal honor, self-respect Is important; I will fiercely fight. I will not abandon my trust of moral values, personal, Or political; or harshly criticize and place myself in guilt. I will abandon ego of self-importance, work on personal growth. I have a lot of weakness, but accountable. So, I look for my strength. Want to be appreciated for contributions and who I am. Alone in whimpering gloom darkness alone I do not desire. My truths about self, trust God. Believe; with Him, I can do all things.

The truths about yourself are so candidly and sincerely stated. None of us is without flaws. Admitting them and trying to correct is the first step towards improvement. We all have sorrows in life, but going strong is a sign of greatness. With God, everything is possible. Congratulations dear friend on your great win.

Strength and weakness often go hand in hand. Those who believe they are only strong are not humble and will fall. You speak of your fortitude and perseverence, alll admirable qualities! “I’ve wiped tears from my cheeks…” You’ve shown yourself vulnerable. Congrats on your top win, dear friend!
