Dear STRENGTH,

 

You have held me down for a long time and keep me on solid ground. Had it not been for you and your vigor ways I probably would of fell many of days. Nevertheless, you pulled me through making it feel all new. The struggles and the battles were vicious but you always proved my ambition. Tears I cried never lasted the whole day somewhere in between you tapped me on the shoulder and said hey. There where times I wanted to ignore your touch but you never gave up, you to much (smile). Are relationship is everlasting you been by my side blasting the positive of every situation making me aware that everything will be fine.

I cannot remember exactly the first time we met, but I will tell you this I knew you were not a threat. When you appeared, I was somewhat scared that was until you showed me you cared.  I have always known your forte, but I cherished you more once my children's father took his last breathe. That was the most devastating thing, something I thought I could not handle. The reflection of my children being fatherless clouded my mentality; there was no way I was going to let you triumph this time. However, some how some way you sat me aside and told me once again everything is passable.

Your graciousness is unbelievable how you intercede trying to make everyone deem. It is a shame how some think you are inconceivable and never follow your lead. I will broaden your presence making individuals conscious of what you can and will do. When the road comes to a dead-end, you will get them through. When it feels like the rain is pouring non-stop you will make the sun shine bright. When all else fails you will rise up and all will prevail. 





                                                                                    Love Always,

                                                                                                E.L.R

P.S. – Thank you GOD for giving me STRENGTH
