Strength

Strength

It is not right we should start walking through a field of thorns and pass the green grass of comfort when we have golden hearts filled with grace. 
Strength must come from somewhere, and living a life without pain or strife will not make one strong enough to confront all that we would have to go through if life was easy every day.
Poking your finger on a thorn bush will make you able to keep getting up when you want to give up and hide in the shadows of fear and doubt wishing away light you should be radiating.
Determination is in love with you and your true self should be in love with it also.  Being true to truth is an honor to achieve, it means truth does not hurt, and it makes you proud you can be true to Yourself without feeling sick.
  Truth is the number one enemy to insecurity which can be dismissed by learning how to love oneself without disgust.
Being in solitude is certainly a positive, to find out Who you are, what you want, and where you want to start to find your meaning of living free without complications.
Living for the moment is enchanting, it is like a release of tension that used to be locked away taking up more space, of negativity, causing confusion, and fear of uncertainty.
Knowing oneself to the fullest does not happen overnight, you search deep within the other person we nearly never know on the exterior.
 The other you is your soul, your energy force of life, your inner voice, your source of knowledge and understanding.
 Once you begin to know who you are, you will never be the person you were again.
  You and you alone will know who you are, your strength will be tested over and over again, and you are now at your own level of survival you found within yourself that determination deep enough to find answers one can not learn out of a book.
