Stronger


I'm one for cheesy movies. I love inspiring movies, and I bought one yesterday that really makes me feel good. It's "We are Marshall", about how a town, a college, and a football program heal after losing 75 team members, coaches, boosters, and leadership to a terrible airplane crash.

I'm also one who watches the special features of movies I like. One of these was a collection of interviews from famous sports coaches. One of the messages that stuck out to me was that adversity makes you stronger. Each of the coaches interviewed had their own struggles to go through, whether it was losing family members, having hard childhoods and lives, or the challenges of going to the Olympics.

I really believe this: that the trials we face in life make us stronger, tougher, wiser, more motivated, BETTER people.
