Strength

Prompt from oneword.com...a one minute write on the word strength.

inner peace is found from inner strength
the knowledge that one can handle
the adversities with aplomb and grace
the ability to continue without praise
because you know you must.
inner strength is everything

Fantastic truths here. I really identify with your thoughts. I love the fact that so much wisdom comes from one word.

Most excellent!

So true Judy, sometimes the struggle is so hard when you want to pack up and run towards something but now deep inside you have to stay.. Inner strength...xx

In one minute? Impressive. "The ability to continue without praise." That is one of the truest things I have heard in quite awhile. With no outside approval, the only thing we have to confirm that we are worth something is what we have inside of ourselves.
It's amazing that you captured this all in one minute :p
