triumph
I've been reading this awesome book called "Wise Woman." Included in the book are quotations from several woman over the years. I am inspired to take a look at my life through them and hope you are too.
"Although there may be tragedy in your life, there's always a possibiliity to triumph. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from. The ability to triumph begins with you. Always." (Oprah Winfrey)
How have you been triumphant in your life?
I left a bad marriage to an alcoholic gambler. It took a lot of courage to take my children from their father and to lower my income (he has a good job.) My family does not divorce -- so it meant going against the family grain as well. The outcome has been a much higher self-esteem and a wonderful new relationship with a man who knows how to treat a woman right! I also believe that I am modeling positive self care and self love for my daughters and they will be healthier as a result!
