Inner Beauty and Strength

What makes a person truly strong? In today's world it seems like everything promises strength and beauty. All you have to do is walk into a local drug store to see that. Promises of strength from energy drinks to protein drinks will hit your eyes. If you want beauty go down aisle six, there you'll find everything from wrinkle cream to the sexiest shade of lipstick. Let's get real though, when have these things ever satisfied anyone? They never have. Some of us have bought into the idea that the car, the money, the looks will make us happy. Do they? It is really something to think about. From my own personal experience, none of these things will ever truly satisfy a person. As a woman, there was a time that I felt looking a certain way would satisfy me. It didn't. I found the only thing that truly ever satisfied me was being my self. Digging to the core of who I was, I decided I am who I am. Maybe I'm not a supermodel, but I don't care. I'm determined to be the best me I can. I'm determined to set goals and work towards them everyday. Hard work to me is more satisfying than buying into the promises that fall flat in magazines and stores. So just food for thought be true to who you are. Be comfortable in your own skin. Stay strong and determined and you can achieve alot.
