A strong woman

Hello everybody!

My weekend wasn't bad at all, and I trust you all had a good time too. Yesterday, I got thinking... I was doing a lot of soul searching and I came out with this piece and for that matter, the title above. Hope you enjoy it.

A strong woman believes in herself, her dreams and her abilities. A strong woman believes that despite the setbacks, heartbreaks, disappointments and failings of her life, she's on a journey and that although she might break down along the way and cry her heart out, she will wipe the tears in her eyes and keep moving.

A strong woman believes that, until she gets to where she is going, she's not giving up on her dreams or giving in to her challenges, she is not throwing in the towels, she's not going to let the storms of life get her drowning, she will not stay in the durst, but rather, she will get up, shake it off and keep moving forward. 

A strong woman believes that, until she gets what she has set out to achieve, she's not letting go... Her zeal is consistently alive, her passion is resolute and her focus is one. You cannot distract a strong woman into dropping her pursuit when she believes she is on the right path. She has her pride to preserve, and she will never give up on a testimony worth telling. A strong woman knows the difference between bait and favour, and will never mistake the two no matter what she has to go through... And between love and the pleasure that endures only for a season, a strong woman will always choose love, even if it costs her everything she owns and stands for.

I believe I am a strong woman and I believe you all (my ladies on this platform) are too. So just in case you feel all is lost, remember God is with you and He will see you through it all; thick or thin. To all the strong women of blogville, I believe in you all and I know we will get there by God's grace.

In other matters, my blog turned a year old this April and I must admit that you all, and that includes my followers and everybody who has dropped any form of comment on this blog, have made my stay here very wonderful and worthwhile.

A family is not necessarily those whose blood you share, but those you love and also those who love you back. You! My blog friends are my family and I love you all as such. Thank you for loving me too. Best wishes, to you and yours.

Peace... I'm out!
