Known Strength: (Unedited): 13 Feb 2016:

Unknown and uncertain strength becomes evident and known in the strong woman/person who protects her/their loved ones from the never ending storms of life.

Thank You for the inspiration Young lady. 

You are an inspiration because you have become an inspiration. 

C.J.MacKechnie

This is the only way true inspiration works. The wisdom gained from having lived a very trying life. Is and always has been where the most profound wisdom has come from. Lessons to be learned from those who are will to see and hear it. Then alter their own lives so as not to repeat the bad and sad of your life. Kind of like the people in the Holy Bible. You can think of the many people as teaching how not to live your life. While at the same time you are living your own life with honor and respect. In spite of those loved ones who have abused and abandoned you in your past. You have become more than all of you past adversities. 
===============
The weak and helpless soul always is needy for those to perpetually rescue them from any and all adversity. It is these weak and helpless souls who are quickly forgotten. All a person can ever learn from these types of people. Is how not to become like them. Sad, hopeless and alone.

Conquered Scars (unedited). 06 Feb 2012

Celebrate your scars. That are both seen and unseen. These are the real evidence of conflicts, hardships and adversities. Which you have faced, endured and conquered in your life. C.J.MacKechnie

==========================

Scars are not unsightly nor are they ugly. They are the permanent reminders of your errors and mistakes. They are reminders of your selfless sacrifice. They are proof that you went forward by choice in harms way to conquer evil or to be evil. Either way the sadness you endure from your scars can be a positive emotion instead of a negative emotion. The logical choice of deciding which emotion to place upon your scars is all your. Even if your scars were a result of youthful stupidity. Ask yourself are you the same stupid person today? have you grown and matured into someone more positive and respectful? Has your scars led you to GOD who became your Heavenly Father? Can you now love everyone equally as your brother and sister? Even if they wish you harm? If you can answer yes? Can you answer yes? even while sitting in a chair with lifeless legs? Even while needing assistance to eat, drink or go to the bathroom? Even if your alone is some forgotten hospital?

I can tell you this as a truth. This is a blessing. This is a gift. This life in which you must endure is the crucible of your resolve and humility to be the son or daughter of GOD

Peace be unto you my brother and sister. C.J.MacKechnie
