Strength: It takes on so many different forms. It takes strength to move forward. It takes strength to let go, at times. It even requires strength to stand stationary. I see the strength in those around me. I see the different perspectives and step outside of myself or my involvement in the given situation. I think the fact that I am resolved in my course of action makes it easier for me to get outside of myself. This time is different than the last time I faced a similar set of circumstances. I have learned much and am applying it appropriately.
I digress....There is a difference, obviously, between self-preservation and self-sacrifice. Both, at the opportune time, can serve a purpose greater than the act itself. However, at an inopportune time, both can bring tragedy and destruction in their wake. It's kind of amazing how the collaboration of perspectives can create a picture that none of the parties involved could have imagined separately. Creativity and spontaneity can come together in such a way, on just such an occasion, to create something truly beautiful to behold. And though the stages by which its' completion manifested made no sense to the creators or spectators, the final product is all that really matters. That representation which is a direct reflection of the driving force behind the creation in the first place. A masterpiece has already been forged. I suppose the real question is: What impact will it have as time marches on?
It's all about perspective, I suppose

Life is what you make of it.
This seems like the perfect opportunity for you to tackle this circumstance with tenacity. Once it's all in your wake, you will possess nothing but the salubrious consciousness that comes with beautiful memories.
What better way to unravel?
