Strength

Info

Wouldn't it be the best feeling when even though in a midst of a great tribulation you have it within you to stand your ground head held high with a purpose. That'd be a beauty, but it comes at a great cost, sacrifice, experience. People tend to forget those things and in it comes resentment, jealousy towards those who has that strength.
    Well what is strength to start with, was it the physicality of such an individual or was it something else.
     Well let's say you are the one titled the strongest man in the world, would you say that you are strong because of your body or would you rather say that you are strong because of the will that you have to pursue, by pursue meaning having purpose to attain something, to reach, develop, grow, learn.
     As long as their is life there will always be a peak that we'd like to reach, a pinnacle we would want to attain, a place where you are the greatest. But thats just it people forget, people sometimes neglect the fact that the world is vast, they neglect or forget that reality that there's always someone out there that could best them. Thus when they meet that force they become helpless, forgetting how they once were who they are and leaving them lost.
    One thing is certain you cannot outrun reality and that reality is truth, one shouldn't be blinded by fame nor riches just because they life at tge luxury of life, no one knows when that will be, no one knows when they would be at the peak of their game. That's one certainty in life, the strength of those holding it would fade in time, those riches which they rely on exhausted to the tiniest bit, leaving nothing in their midst.
    But in times like these, only those who keeps pushing forward, who kept fighting the battles where victory doesn't seem to be real, those ones have the real strength.
     And by real strength means not just winning the battles you face everyday but also having the will and character to face the demons within and not be devoured by them, that is also a great feat of strength.
     Living is for the strong, and the living takes precedent no matter the how time changes. Life reminds us that we are not alone and that we are also walking in the dark.
     Keep moving forward, in spite of how you had lived, whom you met. Changes comes in sizes and shapes, keeping up with these changes is like fire for polishing oneself.
     Live within failure after failure, or die without trying.
