True Strength

“It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate them, more 'manhood' to abide by thought-out principles rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles and an immature mind.”

This week, Jami and I met for dinner at Pei Wei.
This beautiful tree, near the restaurant
 had snapped in the storm & wind.
Jami posed.
It made me wonder what strength it took to resist such a storm.
And what small weakness allowed it to break.
Life.
Love you, me.

The things a strong woman, for example, can endure, yet... sometimes the smallest things can break us down. Insightful observation.
