You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice. ~ Bob Marley
NOTE: The real test of human strength isn’t in how much weight one can lift over one’s head. Our strength is measured when we’re faced with a choice to either stand up and do what’s right, no matter the personal cost, or to slink away and hope no one notices. History is replete with people who faced these types of choices and took a stand. Some became martyrs. Some saints. Some heroes. History doesn’t mention ordinary people like the man or woman who works two jobs to feed his or her family. It doesn’t mention the man or woman who takes their parenting role seriously. It doesn’t mention the stranger who stops on the highway to help a person injured in an accident. We are stronger than we realize and we are using our strength in ordinary ways to make a difference.
