Somehow, in our culture, we do not focus on the strength of those who have fallen. We call the strong and fit the winners, the people who never fall, or at least don’t make their falls known.
How comfortable are we talking about our falls and the spaces we get up again? How strong do we feel when dusting ourselves off and bandaging scrapes and wounds?
I do believe that many different things bring strength, but I am a firm believer, based on my own story and from listening to others, that strength comes from struggles. I encourage you to consider the spaces where you have discovered your strengths by getting up from your falls. Learning to share these stories can invite others to be curious about their own stories of falling and discovering strengths! ❤️ trish
