Everyone wonders what’s her secret? <br />The mother with 3 kids and no father to support them <br />The woman with cancer who still manages to come out on top <br />The grandmother who is forced to be a mother yet again because <br />Of her daughters mistakes <br /> <br />I wonder myself and I still have a long way to go <br />But I believe that they all have one thing in common…. <br />The Real Strength of a Woman <br /> <br />The ability to shield themselves from the hurt while in others view <br />The ability to make their children believe that everything will be ok <br />The ability to make everything ok despite their hurdles <br />The ability to stay close to God despite how difficult it may seem <br />The ability to be strong and remain a brick wall for their loved ones <br /> <br />A real woman can console others even when she is worse off <br />She can find it in her heart to somehow give, even when no one is giving her <br />She can endure many hardships and sacrifices because of the ones she loves <br />Yet she somehow still remains strong <br /> <br />I still don’t fully know the strength of a woman <br />But every woman out there that I’ve seen, met or come into contact with <br />All possess these qualities in one way, shape or form <br /> <br /> 2/9/08<br /><br />Candice George<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-real-strength-of-a-woman/
