deciding not to surrender

Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

I'm so tired of struggles. I feel that I am plenty strong enough. The idea here of “deciding not to surrender,” is important. Having a struggle and letting it defeat you is the most disappointing. With each thing that comes along, it is a decision to choose the best attitude we can to face it. With a positive attitude we can gain strength from a struggle and more importantly, find a way to enjoy life. Struggle does not mean the end of happiness, it is just a challenge which we can overcome and hopefully see life the little sweeter because we have succeeded.


Please excuse my reusing the same quote I used in April. It spoke to me today with a slightly different theme.
