According to the world book of record, the strongest person in the world is someone who can lift the heaviest weight.
In my opinion, I think it is someone who wakes up every morning and smiles everyday even though everything else in their lives is in shambles.
I think it is those immigrants who starts up a new life from scratch to be able to provide a future for their family.
It is the soldiers' who leave their love ones behind to protect their country.
It is the people who have lost a loved one, to be able to move on from such a tragic moment in their life.
It is the people who have poverty, who is doing their best to survive and make a living.
It is the people who face racism and judgment, for they have this amazing persona to tolerate ignorant people.
Someone who has mental illness and is looking for ways to be happy.
It is those people have experienced horrific and catastrophic situations such as: bombings, terrorism, natural disasters, genocide, etc.
Their innocence and hope for humanity has been washed away.
The people who face struggle and difficulty everyday of their lives, but manages to stand and look at the world with no fear.
I acknowledge their strength and their courage.
I think that these type of people are the strongest and no book could every list them all.
Through the rough times, you get stronger everyday and that makes you as strong as the person who could life the biggest weight in the world.
I truly admire each and everyone who have endured their struggle in life, you are amazingly a strong human being. Your struggle is messy, but how you get through it is a beautiful journey. I send regards and happiness to everyone whose going through situations, may there be sunshine coming your way.
