Our Strengths Are Different

   I marvel at people who in the face of tremendous odds stand tall and stand strong. I always grew up hearing God would never put more on me than I can bare. As I lived, I experienced situations where I wondered if that were true. There have been heartbreaks over the year. People that I've trusted that took all I had to give and left me with nothing, death, missed opportunities, etc. At this age, I realize that your strength grows and transforms. There are things that I know how to handle now that I didn't know how to handle 10 years ago. There are people that I realize aren't in my best interest and I don't deal with anymore.  Everybody feels strong when you are looking at a situation from the outside that you have never experienced. It's easy to advise someone of something that you personally have never put to the test.
   Learn to accept people for who they are and fill in the gap of their weakness with your strength and they should do the same for you. We are in this world together and it's time that we figure out how to co-exist. It's effortless to judge make the extra effort to understand.
