What does it really mean to be strong?
Does it mean a hunger for power? Or for peace? And justice too!
So! Both?
It can't be both! Right?
Oh! So a hunger for power to protect...
Peace that is! And as well ensure,
Justice that is!
Then what if one fails? One fears? Or cries?
Means, they're weak?
Do they get spared then? From persecution? And judgement from others?
Oh! They have no right for that you say?
Why? It's not cowardice?
So! Those that get up and rise again! Who embrace the pain and heal the hurt, find courage within fear and don't run away, huh? But it is bravery?
Unfazed by fear, then??
Woah! They wipe their tears, and push forth!
Hmm!
Power of the soul, a true warrior's role!
To keep rising after every fall!
Healing the wounds, then wearing the scars,
their ornaments now, as proof of survival, victory and evolution! What they overcame has made them only stronger, to give it a go again! Hahaha!
True strength is within, humble and gentle!
To know the pain of failure and loss!
Then choosing joy anyway to attain peace, and bliss, in living the moment despite!
Free! 'Cause they have not failed yet! Can try again, as long as they're alive! Woo!
Now! The pain! It reminds that we're still breathing!
And! The gloom? It means the soothing dawn is near, comes after the storm!!
Joy! It is there too, forever! We just need to have faith to see it!
Bliss? An open eye to look within will find it, you must believe!
But be guided by hope, all for truth eternal...
And we must resist and persist. Plus perseverance with patience!
To strive to be better still, for better!
And towards growth...
Of body, mind and soul!
True strength is there, within. And around.
And everywhere you are able to glance at, listen to, and feel from...
It is invincible...
And resides there forever, embraced by love, the endless love...
