In times of hardship, disarray and trials, I realize I’m stronger than I ever thought possible. I’ve been through so much in my lifetime, and I’m still standing. Battered, bruised, beat down by life – yet still I persist.

Sometimes my strength astounds even me. I credit this to my inner wonder woman — she’s the one who comes to my rescue when I feel I can’t go on. She holds me up when I’m weakened by defeat. She pushes me forward when I feel like I can’t take another step.

She’s my inner wonder woman and, today, I’m going to let her emerge.
