The Strength In Weakness

[westcoastred]

I am alive. I live. Therefore, I can only understand things that have a beginning and an end. Polarity. I see it in everything. Every blessing has the potential to become a curse. Every strength can atrophy. Every good thing, if misunderstood, can be seen as harmful. Hope's shadow twin is naivete. Strength, whether physical or mental, can be
