“Stand up and face the enemy… we will be invincible.” ~ Pat Benatar

So many of us face obstacles every day. A few weeks ago, a dear friend of mine (a kindred spirit, fellow writer, sister of my soul) suffered a stroke. I know that she will overcome the struggles she’s facing right now because she’s a fighter, and she’s a bad-ass in so many ways. In chatting with her, I have found that she is taking this experience in stride. She is weathering this winter, and through her strength and inner light, she is willing summer to emerge from within her! I am in awe, inspired, and filled with such warmth for this incredible woman!

We all have weathered our own winters.  What gave you warmth? Were you able to pull from inside you? Tell us about your invincible summer!
