Do I have to go through the storm to win?

You can't calm the storm, so stop trying. What you can do is calm yourself. The storm will pass. - Timber Hawkeye

I used to work for a company that treated people poorly. I was one of the individuals that were not treated well.  I went through this abuse for over a year and cried almost every day.  The verbal abuse and mistreatment were so bad that I started having panic attacks when I drove up to the building.

I cried each time I drove into the parking lot because I knew what was coming.  It was so hard walking into an office every day in which people worked against you and remained calm, always tried to smile, and focus.

I knew this was a test that I had to go through and often prayed for God to give me the strength to make it out of the situation victoriously.  I did not ask for the storm to go away. I asked for the strength to make it to the end.  I made it to the end, and guess what, although it seemed like it took forever, the storm did pass.

So the next time you are going through a storm Mom Tribe, keep calm your victory is closer than you know.
