What is the difference between someone who is strong and someone who is hard? I will tell you.
What is strong, bends. What is hard, breaks.
Strength is a fundamental property of people – some have it, some do not. However, a lack of strength does not mean a lack of potential for strength, or even an inherent weakness. To have strength, to be strong, is about being able to surpass challenges.
So, what determines strength?
Is it persistence? Is it hope? Love? Effort? Genetics?
Consider that they all do. They are all a part of something larger. Yet, also self-contained.
So, what gives strength?
We give it to ourselves, and we give it to each other. This is a gift that must not taken for granted.
