Strength and Happiness

Strength is always something I thought you had to be either born with or born without or like a personality thing either you had it or you didn't but I have learned over these last few years through my disorders that strength is something you choose. Strength is something thrust upon you because it's the only thing you have left. I have learned that everyone has their own battles that make them stronger each and everyday. Happiness is the same way and you've got to have a hell of a lot of strength to be truly happy but you've got to choose happiness. Sure it's a lot easier to be sad and negative because that takes no effort but choosing happiness is not only better, it's badass. The happiest people I know are the ones who have fought everyday for their life and had the strength to overcome and choose happiness.
Happiness and strength are the hardest things I have ever had to do but at the end of the day I'm glad I chose them because they make me feel powerful and I can absolutely kick ass because of it.
