I'm feeling all sorts of weak today. Maybe its the gloomy weather, maybe its something else. Theres just those moments every once in a while that no matter what, no matter how many struggles you feel that you've fought through, no matter how much strength you feel that you've gained with the love and support around you, theres simply those moments that you can't help but feel like it all doesn't matter. After all, we're all only human. As much as I'd like to try to be super strong "I can take on the world" about everything, with every strength comes weaknesses, and I am far far far from a superwoman.
Although I know now that everything will be ok in the end, those reasons why I need hope and strength and love and all of those wonderful things in the first place still exist. The reason why and how I can be so appreciative of the good at this point of time in my life is because there is a lot of sadness and bad. Even if I've found a way to overcome it for the most part doesn't mean I don't feel it at times. My heart still hurts from it all. I'm still completely frightened deep inside. I'm still struggling and fighting my own self battle and every day is its own journey.
One step by another step, each day at a time, I'll keep moving forward though. And that's all that really matters right? Patience and perseverance. If only I were Superwoman...

"Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish." -John Quincy Adams
"The greatest prayer is patience." -Buddha
you don't want to be superwoman. superwoman has the weight of the world on her shoulders with everyone wanting her to help others while all superwoman really wants is for someone to save her from that responsibility.
