30 Days of Celebrating me Day 2: Strength

Today I celebrate the Strength I possess. I don't always accept or see that I am a very strong woman, full of will power and determination. I just see me as your every day woman plodding along, but when I look back, I see one hell of a strong woman. Not just physical strength, but emotionally and mentally strong. I fall, make a lot of mistakes along the way, but what I have found is my ability to cry it out, and start working my way out of whatever issues I may be facing, and yes most of the time, I do so with a smile on my face.

I remember 4 years ago, accepting my current job with the IT department and the first decision I made was to let go of the raging bull within me. No more getting angry and lashing out. I decided as I signed my contract that I would think hard before I spoke, be slow to anger and be even more open to constructive criticism. 3 years on, and I'm grateful that I made that decision. With that decision came another level of growth, and a new found strength I wasn't aware of. The strength to forgive, the strength to back down from a fight, the strength to turn away from anger, the strength to stand up no matter how down and out I feel and the list goes on and on.

So raise your glass with me as I celebrate the strength that I possess.
