Strength is not measured by how many weights you lift.
Strength is not the weight of your biceps or the muscles you bear.
Strength is the fire burning within.
Strength is your feet getting up after you’ve gone down.
Strength is smiling at the person who’s shunned by all.
Strength is walking alone towards the sunset when the comrade to your shoulder has left.

I was just thinking about this when I was in the park watching two boys arm wrestling. What are your views?
