Strength.

Because I have had nothing, I am generous.

Because I have been mistreated, I am kind.

Because I have been lied to, I am honest.

Because I have been foolish, I am wise.

Because I have been hurt, I am happy.

Because I have made mistakes, I have succeeded.

 

Because I have endured, I am strong. ♥
