Strength can be interpreted in many forms.
Mental strength, Emotional Strength, Physical Strength.
Frailty can even be a strength.  Human beings are strong creatures in general…
we all have strengths and weaknesses and that’s what makes life beautiful.
Tears are fragile, yet strength comes from them.

This photograph represents a mother who has housed babies in her womb, carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, has a comforting hug for friends in need, felt knives in her back from individuals she trusted, and stands tall in her beliefs. She represents a powerful force of strength, knowledge, and love.  The muscular strength you see may have come from many sessions of sweat and lifting iron bars/plates, yet there is an internal strength you don’t see from a picture.

That strength has come from years of putting others first, holding babies, caring for those who may not deserve or appreciate it, handling life’s stress and loving every minute of the struggle life brings.  That struggle makes us stronger individuals.  It allows us to pick ourselves up when we don’t think we can, helps us to let friends assist us in times of need, and keeps us moving in a forward direction.  It’s helps us to be a healthy role model for other adults and children alike.

That woman is Me.  I pray that my children not only see my physical strength as this picture shows, but also recognize the internal strength which, even in times of weakness, still resides inside.  If one day my children remember me as, “She was a strong woman who loved us with all she had and helped many” then I will be a happy Mother & left my mark in this world.
Strength is love, peace, and hard work.
Strength is Beautiful.
