I recently read an interesting article that I completely agree with. Here are just a few thoughts of this article.
Life can be difficult. For some in particular.
Some of them are going through a tough ordeal. They are addicted to addictions such as overeating, alcohol, smoking, various drugs, shopping, and many others. Still, others do not give – they, through difficult experiences, grow, prosper, become stronger and better people. They overcome all the difficulties and the hardest trials, they learn from their mistakes. They are flying even higher than they ever imagined. They are like a Phoenix rising from the ashes.
These women are known to be strong, independent women who will not clone – never and no one. To many, their strength and relentlessness are terrifying; many get on their nerves with their courage and determination. Because they are reminded of everything they are not themselves.

So heartfelt article, thank you so much for it!!! Wish all of us to overcome all the difficulties and turn into very strong & powerful Phoenixes!!!
Thank you very much. I’m very glad you liked the post. Unfortunately, we really aren’t all that strong enough to overcome all the problems. Many break down.
Very interesting. Women are special.
You are right. I think we are a little more powerful than men ?
What didn’t kill me, it made me stronger….
Thank you. I know these words very well.
As you know, personal loss and issues we are given in life can make us a stronger person. We all have to fall down, pick ourselves up, and learn a new path to get through the next day.
I totally agree with you, dear friend. I know your story and you know mine. We both know how fall, picking and life go.
Thank you. I agree. There are things that break us, but we have to persevere even though it is difficult.
The orchid is wonderful, dear Vidocka …. there is a lot of truth in this post and each one chooses which path to choose
Thank you. You are right. Everyone chooses the route.
Some choose the right one, but they also get out of the way …. life is not easy, dear Vida
I totally agree with you. There are many problems in life.
And then it is up to each individual to deal with them
this is so true.
Power comes from within us. We cannot let others take our power away. We rise! Many women are encouraged to step back, to allow things to flow around them. But that is a sad reality of our world. We should, no we are all equal and should act accordingly!
I agree. I know many women who have not been able to overcome these hardships. I know this is very difficult, but if we persist we will succeed.
i always find it so sad that people have to do that. My mom fought that battle for many years. My mother-in-law fought that battle for many years. My wife has fought that battle for many years.
I wished once that my daughter would not have to fight.
but sadly she has to fight now as well.
Thank you – what a great thought-provoking post!
Personally, I am such a woman. Life’s difficulties made me so.
I, too, have become a strong woman throughout my life.
I feel a lot like what you mentioned in your post. I like it.
Thank you very much. I’m glad you liked the post. I spent part of it, too.
Learning from experience and failures makes us strong, but not everyone does it. I agree strong people are made. we may have potential but until we pout it to use it is useless.
You are right. I know a lot of people who were unable to solve problems and were drooling.
There are so many factors and one of them is the right kind of exposure.
I agree. There are many factors in life to become stronger or to “break down”.
I have overcome as I used to be sensitive before. Age matures one’s thinking.
I am not sure that I agree, completely.
Some of our potential, I think, we are actually born with.
God tells us, in the Christian Bible, that he looks at our heart, to determine our worthiness for his chosen role for us.
“The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
This quote is from the Old Testament Bible book of 1 Samuel, chapter 16, verse 7.
At what stage then, does the heart become worthy of God choosing it, from birth, from experiences, or in other words, how did David acquire a heart like this, worthy of being chosen by God?
I would say that each soul is born into a particular body, with a certain type of a heart given to it too, depending on what God has in mind for them, in their lives.
And yet, we all also have the freedom to keep our own particular heart open to God, or to close it off early, or alter it, and so just operate, apart from God, only just in our own minds.
God sees who remains open to him, and to love. David did so. He always loved his God.
I guess, though, that if we have made the choice to operate rigidly just from our own minds, life experiences, varied, and sometimes hard and difficult, might bring us eventually to connect to our hearts again, and so become strong in the right way, or in the way of love, rather than strong just in an obstinate, mind-driven, stubborn way only.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. I partly agree. I believe that we cannot do everything alone and need a little help, but we have a big part to do on our own. If we despair, no one can help us.
That’s true, we cannot just sit around moping and hoping that someone will be our saviour.
A lot of the responsibility is ours, but we are not entirely on our owns either.
A balanced outlook is best then, I suspect.
I believe that every negative experience has the potential to become a lesson and to make us wiser and stronger. Beautiful orchid!
Thank you, Ellie. You are right. My life experiences have certainly made me stronger.
Through personal problems and stress in early adulthood, I fell apart and had severe anxiety attacks for almost a whole year. After pulling myself together it became a battle for me to keep my nerves together and not to fall apart. It greatly helped when I had my soul mate because he was the one who kept me strong. When he died I had to quickly take over the reins and give myself strength because it was either sink or swim and I chose to swim. Now I can handle life on my own.
You have a sad life story. Unfortunately, mine is very similar to yours. But I didn’t have a person to help me through the difficult times. But I persevere and I’m slowly succeeding.
