She has always been sure of who she was and what she wanted..
It was just the “getting there” part that she didn’t know.
She had big dreams and knew they wouldn’t be easy to chase,
But she had made up her mind long ago to never give up, but that didn’t help figure out how to know the right path to follow in her life.
She wasn’t comfortable winging it, but sometimes, she didn’t have a choice.
She’d stumble and bumble through some of her days, guessing and taking chances as she found all the wrong ways to do things.
Like everyone, she had good days and bad, easy tasks and arduous challenges…
But no matter of what she faced, she kept getting up, showing up and fighting.
She never lost faith in herself or her dreams and knew that she’d get there, one way or the other.
It wasn’t that she was fearless, because there were many times she was scared…
But that she went on despite the fear.
She was brave enough and strong enough to know that she could overcome anything, regardless of any uncertainty or challenge.
She’d stay true to herself and her values, never losing sight of her moral compass, no matter where life led her.
Maybe she wouldn’t always succeed.
Perhaps she’d fall down, mess up and have a tough time.
But the sun would always rise on a new day and a new beginning and she’d try again then.
Even on the days she’d come apart and cry in the shower or in her car, frustrated and overwhelmed..
Those are the times she dug deep and found a way to put herself back together and rise again.
She was a warrior with a heart of gold and fiercest of spirits.
And as she looked in the mirror at the beginning of a new day, she smiled bravely.
“Let’s do this, girl.”
And like the strong woman she was, she got it done.
She would always shine again-
And during the darkest storms, that’s when she shone the brightest.
Today, tomorrow and for always.
That’s what strong women do.
