Weakness, Strength?

Weakness

In life do you feel like you have a weakness?

Maybe that weakness is a gift?

I believe if you live in fear it’s because of a weakness.

Maybe because it’s something you hide or something you don’t want to show?

But what if your weakness was something you were born with?

I know I was born with bipolar disorder.

I also know I was masking the symptoms of my mental illness with my drug and alcohol use.

So is this a weakness?

I believe that whatever life has in store we need to have strength.

Not just physical, but mental and spiritual too.

Sometimes I think of my disorder as a weakness.

But I have come to terms that I need to change that thinking to see the positive.

What could be the positive?

Looking negatively only produces negative thoughts and actions.

I have found that when I change my thinking I produce positive thoughts.

When my thoughts are positive, positive actions happen.

It’s not always easy to change your thinking, but necessary.
