Strength to Stand up

Strange how upon review of my past posts I seem to rant and rave, as my blog name does suggest. Funny how I tend to have ramblings of someone who is down on my luck. Guess most blog posts may come from when I'm at a nadir. Something that I suppose isn't as clear from my posts is how I continue to find the strength to push forward and move on.

I may have commented upon how my feelings have been hurt but that's me as the kid version, I want to continue to strive and be stronger so that words won't hurt me as much. If those who have read my past blogs have been hurt because of something they may have done do not feel bad because those are posts to help give me a catharsis of those feelings. I have learned to forgive and to let go, so those who read this do not feel bad at all I never intended for you to feel that way. I would feel awful if I made you feel bad. So a blogful *hug* and no hard feelings as we sally forth to my reflection.

A lot in my life I've been knocked down and there have been times I've wanted to give up. Deep down I know that isn't me and that I can do it and that I can make it through. We all go through the grinder and we endure and make it through it and we're stronger afterward. The strength for me to get up after getting knocked down may also come from my own stubbornness to give up to accept failure without trying. In life there are times you'll get tripped up and fall, but if we get up and keep going we'll win and be better in the future.

I'll probably elaborate on this later but my brain drifts off to other thoughts.
