When I ran across this ... my first thought, well my action, was that I smiled. I am reminded of how many times I have heard this quote in some form or fashion, from one of the constants in my life, she has reminded me several times of how we are still alive, despite the storms we never thought we would make it out of. Some of us make it, some of us ... succumb to the world and let the world win.
We were born learners, fighters, sons, and daughters ... that grew up to be stronger, wiser, conquerors, and fearless to an extent. I am sure we have died a thousand times inside from the time we were teens to today. Heartbreak and Heartache. Life and Death. Hurtful words that cannot be taken back, only forgiven. "The only thing I know is this: WE are full of wounds but WE are still standing on our feet."
What would life be if everything was perfect ... how would that shape us? Would we be helpless children in adult form? I believe we would be. It starts from the time we begin on the earth ... and ends when we return to it. If your parents didn't allow you to fail, makes mistakes, let you fall again and again, how would anyone survive? By chance, that is how.
Childhood can make us or break us ... Life can make us or break us. It is OUR choice to rise above our situations as they are only temporary, they pass by like the days. When you look back at the storms you have already conquered ... you could say "The only thing I know is this: I AM full of wounds and I AM still standing on my feet."
We Live, We Learn, We Love, We Hurt, We Cry, We Struggle but in the END ... "The only thing I know is this: I am full of wounds and I am STILL STANDING on my feet."
Storms are temporary ... Struggle is temporary & so is Life ... Love it, every moment of it!
