Okay, okay

I know that I have blogged about Bethany Joy Galeotti many times before, but I can't help myself. She is A M A Z I N G. She is inspiring and true and witty and honest and full of love. I am so in awe of her and inspired by her... she makes me want to be a better person. And there are not a lot of people that I can say that about. Her blog is chock-full of amazing, heartfelt and sincere stories, issues and thoughts on today's world. Every time she updates I find a new appreciation for something in life. I hope that you will take the time to check out her blog, even if you don't know her as an actress/singer. I promise you that you won't regret it. Her latest post is entitled "Sweetheart, close your legs." If that doesn't make you want to read it, I don't know what will. It is about class. And women with class. And the lack thereof in today's society.

With that, I just want to share a reading that Joy posted on her blog recently...

A Woman Of Strength
(author unknown)

A strong woman works out everyday to keep her body in shape...

But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything...

But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her...

But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future...

A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings, and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face...

But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey...

But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong. 

I have looked to this reading so many times after first reading it. It really makes it easier to determine the right thing to do in a tough situation.

Happy reading.
