Invincible

We are only as strong as our weakest moments.
Maybe it’s not just one moment, but a barren wasteland after the explosion of consecutive landmines.
Maybe it’s a lifetime of anger ringing in your ears.
Maybe it’s the pieces of your heart that your tears fall on as you hold them in your palm.

Is your life something you can just throw away when things get too much to bear?
Is pain really worth dying for?
Some may say – Is it really worth living for?
You’re still here, aren’t you? That in itself is a testament.

Because those experiences are the essence of what you are made up of – something unbreakable.
There are times when life is passing by and you’re trapped – by others, by yourself.
Times when all the suppressed anger in you just wants to lash out and slap someone, Lord knows I’ve wanted to do that more times than I can count.

At times like that, we each have our own remedies that help us climb out of what we got lost in – ourselves.
Chocolate: sinful, scandalous, soothing comfort food.
A long, deep kiss from that one, special person.
Or maybe just a smiling emoticon from a friend across cyberspace.

Point being, you are never helpless. Giving up and dying shouldn’t even cross your mind.
Inside you is the power, when unleashed, that will rewrite destiny itself.
You hold in your hands the ultimate energy that can strangle the hands of Fate herself.
You are invincible.
