Strong Roots

She walked alone in a field...her bare feet pressed into the soft mud as she quickly walked through the tall grasses swaying gently in the evening breeze...She stared into the vast darkness as if something was holding her eyes...fixing them to one distant location....A warm tear softly spilled from the brim of her eye and rolled gently down her cheek...She breathed the warm humid air in filling her full lung capacity and then released it in a quiet sigh almost a whisper....She felt mentally and physically exhausted...All she wanted to do was curl up in a ball and sleep for an eternity...She didn't understand why everyone wanted to hurt her...it seemed to be a constant thing in her life...one thing after another would push her back further and further from where she wanted to go....but she was strong.... She knew that she could withstand anything that was thrown her way....her roots had grown deep from the many storms that had come her way...She was deeply rooted and was unmoved...she could withstand even the toughest and mightiest winds....Even the rushing waters of the most powerful flood could not move her...She took blow after blow and many times she thought that she was going to fall...she thought that it was finally over... But somehow through all the damage and destruction in her life she managed to climb out through the rubble and start over once again and became just a little bit stronger then before...Time after time she was pushed away but the resistance just made her roots surge deeper into the rich soil....often times she felt so broken she knew in her heart she could no longer carry on but all those hardships...every blow she felt made her who she was...it defined her...and it made her stronger and stronger able to withstand even the most difficult storm...Just because she was strong doesn't mean that it didn't hurt her...she was not invincible...she still felt pain...her heart was still broken...but she knew that it would heal...she knew that she would be alright...and she knew that good fruit would come from the pain she had endured....There may be PAIN  in the night but JOY comes in the morning...
