What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger?
Even the best of us have bad days. I was having one of those days today, yet i’m always telling people to be positive, don’t dwell, embrace everyday as if it were your last, because life is too short.
Yesterday, I received some bad news about my health. I have had many of these throughout my life and always got through them, including a mini stroke at the age of 22, heart surgery at the age of 32 and major facial reconstructive surgery at the age of 42 – there’s a theme here!!
However, each time, I come back stronger and although at the time it comes as a devastating blow, the more these things hit you, the more you fight back. The choice if yours. You can either wallow in self-pity, or embrace it, recover and set yourself a challenge.
As I was sat here thinking what to write, a car drove past with the song ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’ by Kelly Clarkson and I smiled and instantly felt better.
