Where does your strength come from

Not physical but strength of spirit

Where do you go to recharge

What do you do to fill up your tank

When you don’t have the strength where do you find it

I find my strength on beaches

In wide green spaces

Underneath the shadow of a tree

Tall and proud

I find it the sound of a rushing creek or river

In the rocking of the waves

In the blueness of the ocean

In the warm embrace of a friend or lover

In quiet moments spent with those most important

When all seems dark and lonely

When all around me is shrieking sound

I seek first the company of loved ones

Then I seek solace in nature

That’s where I find my strength

Where does yours hide

Does it hide in money

Fast cars

Beautiful men or women

Where does your strength come from
