Looking back at my life, I notice many of my strengths and weaknesses over time. Many of what I may consider my strengths some may consider a weakness - but it is my opinion that matters.
I have many strengths, and one of them is my own strength. This is something to which for some reason is always downplayed. Mostly by me.
I feel stronger than I have been in a long, long time, and not only physically (and I have my kickboxing to thank for that) but emotionally too. Yet the woman I envision, still is in the distance. Which is good, because where would we be if we didn't have to reach for our goals?
This year I plan to draw on that strength, and own it. For so many years I was living from a place of FEAR. I think it's about time that I live from a place of STRENGTH. And that is what I am choosing to focus on this year. My strength.
Have you picked a word for 2012?
Surviving abuse and everything else life throws at me...
