Becoming better

-- Quote of the Day -- 

"I smile when I look back at the troubles that have strengthened me. What seemed to be insurmountable struggles then, are now beautiful ornaments illuminating my soul."

~ Dodinsky

 Quotes like these remind me to reconsider my reactions to challenges in my every day life - seeing them as jewels or ornaments, as opportunities for growth, instead of the end of my world. 

I am this person today BECAUSE of the experiences of trauma and joy in my lives, not despite them. I am stronger, know more and (hopefully) am a better person.
