What is spiritual strength?

Spiritual strength comes from fighting the tough battles. 

From speaking your truth even when no one wants to hear it. 

From living your dreams even when it makes other people uncomfortable because they haven't tapped into their inner light yet. 

But we all have this ability deep inside of us. 

To feel beautiful amongst the ugly parts of life. 

To find unshakable inner peace even when our world is spinning out of control. 

All you need is your breath. And a smile. And a good friend to remind you that YOU ARE MAGIC!

- Mandy Burstein

* I wrote these words in June 2015 during a particularly hard time in my life, when nothing really made sense, but a dear friend came along and reminded me that you can be beautiful amongst the ugly parts of life.
