Being Strong
Being strong is knowing what can hurt you and what can't.
As we grow through life, as we learn about life, sometimes we can get confused.
Words hurt. They do hurt, but yet, can they really hurt you? As we go through life and navigate relationships, we must learn how we can hurt others. But also, there's this understanding of what can hurt you.
Maybe you've been told, "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
Words can hurt, but we have to be confident in ourselves to say, what matters? When do I just need to say, 'No, it's not a big deal.”
Being strong is knowing what can and can't hurt you. Being vulnerable is never going to hurt you. It just isn't. If you allow it to hurt you, it will, but being vulnerable is only going to give you more strength. Vulnerability is the only way to truly get stronger.
