Still Standing


Remember when you thought the pain would kill you - that the scars would never heal? Look at yourself now. You're somebody new. You're stronger, wiser, and better able to love others because of your pain.

Remember when... but be careful to only remember what carries you forward. The rest, let it go; let it melt away like the setting sun and do not let it rise with you again. ~Gail M2 Poole


“When I stand before thee at the day’s end, thou shalt see my scars and know that I had my wounds and also my healing.” - Rabindranath Tagore


"I shall lay down my sword and bleed awhile, then I shall arise and fight again."
From the writings of Charles (Chuck) Warzyn
