Something worth mentioning

Some obstacles have tested my ability to cope, and this time around, my challenges have exposed my unlimited strength and kindness that continue to unfold.

It takes a big person to withstand the tests of time. It takes a big will to accept challenges and defeats, and use them as lessons learned. It takes a big heart to continue showing kindness and generosity to those who have showed you otherwise. It takes a big woman to admit to pain and suffering, yet come out with the most valuable gift of all- courage.

Courage to love. Courage to have faith. Courage to be vulnerable. Courage to cry. Courage to smile and laugh. Courage to trust.

Throughout these past few days, I have been learning more about myself than the years I've tried to search for who I truly am. I had a talk with a good friend of mine because this past week had been so stressful, school-wise and personal-wise. I needed some fresh air and a good conversation to really express where I am at the moment. In doing so, I realized that kindness is second nature to me. My friend, as I spoke about the things going on with me and my feelings, said that I am unlimited- that I am willing to give and not get tired despite what has transpired.

I stopped for a moment, after he had said that, to think and absorb those words...and to be honest, I agree with him. Sometimes, there are things I do that I may not have an explanation for but that's okay because I know it's coming from my heart.

I am unlimited with patience. I am unlimited with strength. I am unlimited with kindness. I am unlimited with love. I am unlimited.

And I'm glad...
