Strength

We are all on a journey and are constantly being told that we are strong…. 
we probably don’t believe it.
We all regard strength as that physical force as in punching someone. 
We ignore the other meaning - the capacity of an object or substance to withstand great force or pressure.

We are that strength - 
We continue to speak to a counsellor every week - some travelling a long way.
We cry, we agonise,  we try to make sense of that thing that brings us to the haven of safety that is the Sue Lambert Trust.
We listen to the other voice in the room and try and make him or her understand.

BUT
We miss in our tears and our pain the one real fact.
We are able to speak to a counsellor and open our minds and hearts and yes, to cry like babies and to try different things and people and places.

BECAUSE
WE ARE STRONG.

One day we will see it and smile ……. and continue on the journey.
