"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' "?


Eleanor Roosevelt did.

sometimes that is true.....sometimes that is false.


sometimes dealing with fear makes you feel weak, scared, and helpless....and it is hard to look beyond those fears. it takes a while to REGAIN previous strength courage and confidence.

I believe we all have the strength to get through whatever life deals us it's a matter of if we are willing to face and learn from what is happening and talking to people to understand why it happened
