I have an image folder titled ‘ Be Inspired ‘ and a YouTube list titled ‘ Be Reminded ‘ – both contain several inspirational quotes and songs based on the concept of ‘strength’ in the face of illness or adversity.
When I started saving these, I would only read / listen in the moments when I felt like I was drowning in Guillain-Barré Syndrome + Neurogenic Heterotopic Ossification and needed a life line. In recent times, reading / listening has become more proactive than reactive….I like to think of that as progress!
Whitney Houston’s I Didn’t Know My Own Strength from the album I Look To You is #8 on my playlist and my ongoing testimony…
*** “I was not built to break; I got to know my own strength” ***
