You Are Strong Like Ox

For some reason we seem to forget the full levels of our strength and capacity as human beings. I see it in myself, my friends and family, and in my clients. As we get older, we understandably protect ourselves from pain and discomfort. Unlike the child, we remember and we begin to fear. We do all sorts of things, even things not in our best interest, in the name of protection. However, I'm here to remind us, you and I, that we are actually very strong. That in reality, we and others can go through extreme levels of adversity and come out not only the other side but even in better positions than believed possible. Our hearts yearn for growth and transformation and only lead us where we are capable. It is our mind, our memories, our pain that stop us but I'm here to say it is okay to let go. Your strength is there. You will be okay.
