Be Strong!

in blog •  7 years ago 



A long time ago I took this photo... I took it as the reminder about broken promises, feelings... burned bridges and lost future. The mood at those time was undefined - I wanted to laugh at my own helplessness and weep from all the troubles that hang over my head...



The last few days I was covered by the feeling of deja vu from emotions that I'm experiencing. Yes, cancer is a serious disease and my uncle did not deserve it! But smearing snots at the face and whining - not an option. He, yes, he needs support, not me! I again looked at "my creation" yesterday...



I'm no longer going to be that "helpless me", never!



I'll do more than I can!

Be Strong

Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift;
We have hard work to do, and loads to lift;
Shun not the struggle?face it; ’tis God’s gift.

Be strong!
Say not, “The days are evil. Who’s to blame?”
And fold the hands and acquiesce?oh shame!
Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s name.

Be strong!
It matters not how deep intrenched the wrong.
How hard the battle goes, the day how long;
Faint not?fight on! To-morrow comes the son

This is all i have to say.
U r awesome so i upvoted you and bcoz u deserve

I like your poem, though I believe that it is always okay to take a break and not be strong all the time if you can't. I think people often burden themselves a lot heavier than they can take and don't really take good care of themselves, their bodies and souls. It is important to love yourself enough to say no sometimes and just do what makes you happy and healthy :)

Allah may give him health

Wow! :)

Hey Terry, I think every one had such situation of feeling helpless at that moment the life was looking unfair, and the question: why me? or why my family member? This is the moment when the one needs a support, for the people around it is important to be able to identify that the one needs help, even just to be there. That was a good reminder that you have captured on your photograph. I don't know if I would be doing the same, probably not, because every time it reopens the old wound.

very inspiring.....

I'm no longer going to be that "helpless me", never!

Sorry to hear that friend,please take care.

Life has its ups and downs...all we can hope is it doesn't get the better of us. Stay strong

It is hard looking at old memories if you get the feeling that they're coming to haunt you on some level again... but at the same time it is a good way to compare the you you have become through the experience with the you you were before and be proud of the progress you made.
Thank you for sharing this with everyone and have a great day :)

Prayers for you your uncle your family, life mammy times is not fair, its hard , I'm sorry

we never change our destini..... its a simple plan of god .. he do the best for us .. do not worred

my colleague is also suffering from cancer, pray for her

I too am and have been in situation where i want to cry at my helplessness. I have learnt to fight though but the more important thing learnt was that you have to face your feelings. Have not been able to do that yet. Wish you well.

It is through adversity we find our strength. Push through, it will be ok.
