Even in young bodies, totally fit winning Olympics — the only strength is that of the soul. We fool ourselves at those times thinking we are strong in body and mind….True words of wisdom, my beloved friend. Hope your travels are going well. 🙂
Thankyou krishna. That is all so true. It is like when I had cancer. It was a truly gruelling physical fight, and I could not even lift my head off the pillow, but it was a mental and spiritual fight as well. My trues strength came from within when my body was weak. It was like climbing Mount Everest, or running a marathon. You need true grit to get through my psrticular form of cancer but in fact ALL cancer. You are tested almost beyond endurance both physically and mentally. It is no walk in the park. It is hard graft. I have never been so tested as I was then, and now, I am STILL being tested in what I am left with. Some days you feel you are not going to win.
Thank you for sharing and i feel so in awe of how strong is your spirit – You have already won and will always be the winner. Your words glow in the light of truth, pure love and absolute courage. You in my heart and prayers, dear friend. Take care of yourself, you are doing your best and you are the BEST! God bless you always and forever. xoxo
Lorraine this was so incredibly powerful! I felt this so deeply in my heart and soul! You my dear have an ability to give us all so much strength and I must say I love you for it!

Gosh, I just said this to someone today 🙂
“For my power is made known in weakness”.
Physical strength can be so deceptive.
You are inspiring!
