thousandwords....here is the truth about "strength"....strength (courage) shows up at just the moment it is needed....it always does. It is not like someone just lays around feeling strong and courageous when they are facing something that is new or scarey.....what happens, most f the time, is that we go forward with shaking knees...and, just when we need it.....the courage comes from inside us!
A quote...".We never know how much courage we h ave until there is no other option".
You can wait until you are a very old lady...for him to see things your way. How many more years you got? How long do you want to live like this? What will you say when your kids ask...."Mamma, why didn't you leave?"......
