surviving life's challenges.....

There are so many bad things that can happen to people and they are terribly tragic, dangerous, and upsetting...

when you go through bad situations in life whether it be illness, disabilities, loss, depression, stress, danger, or terribly awful things that personally happen to you, you have to keep hope that it will pass and get better with time....

when you never give up on facing life's challenges and fighting your way through them, then you are a survivor when the situation was tough to get through and it's over and you are still there and able to wake up everyday and know that you are going to be just fine you know that you have won the battle!

many people survive horrific, terribly sad upsetting things in life and that is proof that you can survive by staying strong and keep on going....never ceasing.

you have to use your mind to stay strong and tell yourself that you will be ok...otherwise you will give up and don't give up! because they just win....and I always win..because I never give up..haha!

surviving all these terrible things is stressful and when it is over and you are still here..you may still always have problems after going through it all....when you live through it...BUT you know you are going to be ok.

it takes a very strong person to survive anything in life...I think about all the people everywhere who have lived through awful things and are still there and are much stronger because they survived.

you may have a few scars, you may be torn up, you may always have some problems physically/emotionally, you may be wounded but wounds can heal, and you are still here.

and when I think about scars and wounds..i think about the emotional scars and wounds that seem like they will never heal...it takes time to get through those emotions I suppose....

surviving all things makes you much stronger and it is awful that people have to go through these bad/sad things in life....but whatever you have to face...you have to battle through it and never give up to survive.

I admire all survivors of all bad things...
