As I ventured out on my own today, going places I didnt want to go (Corners Office) and doing something I didnt want to do (turn J.D.s phone off), a song came to mind. I Didnt Know My Own Strength by Lorrie Morgan. Its an older country song, but the lyrics spoke to me today. YouTube it and watch the cheesy video! Until you are faced with a situation, you have no idea how you will react, let alone deal with it...you can guess, but you just dont know. I focus on today, not yesterday or tomorrow. I laugh and cry. I remember the good, the bad and the ugly times I had with J.D.. I hug and kiss Sam A LOT for he is a major part of my strength. I stand firm in my Faith. But most importantly I rely on the thoughts, prayers, love, support and strength of my dear family and friends. Just knowing that so many people are thinking and praying for us, helps me get through the days and nights. One more thing, a dear friend of mine sent this poem to me today....it is fitting, so I had to share. The Oak Tree A mighty wind blew night and day It stole the oak trees leaves away Then snapped its boughs and pulled its bark Until the oak was tired and stark But still the oak tree held its ground While other trees fell all around The weary wind gave up and spoke. How can you still be standing Oak? The oak tree said, I know that you Can break each branch of mine in two Carry every leaf away Shake my limbs, and make me sway But I have roots stretched in the earth Growing stronger since my birth Youll never touch them, for you see They are the deepest part of me Until today, I wasnt sure Of just how much I could endure But now Ive found, with thanks to you Im stronger than I ever knew I want you all to know that I am doing okay...I have my moments, but I will be okay! I am woman, hear me ROAR! đ Love & Hugs, Emily
