Are You A Survivor?
Our whole world are filled with extraordinary people, people who
are considered heroes, fighters, over comers and people just
like you, a survivor. Are you one of those who has survived
something you were not supposed to? If so you have probably made
it through your ordeal only to find that you have come out a
much stronger person than what you used to be.
This is normally the case for most people who have survived
something very traumatic like an accident or an illness.
Sometimes it takes people to believe that perhaps they are going
to die, in order for their inner strength to develop. Most
people seem to believe it is because of what they have gone
through that they have become a much stronger but couldn't it be
that it was within you always?
Growing stronger after an illness or accident seem to happen for
both women and men equally but there are one certain type of
survivors who seem to surpass all other survivors and that is
women surviving spousal abuse and who are able to break away
from their marriage with their life intact. A woman who has for
years been the victim of abuse have generally lost all her
feeling of self worth and has no will of her own after years of
being brain washed.
Being in a life threatening situation with such a frame of mind
takes nothing short of a miracle to be able to get out of. The
strength which has to come from within, in this case, has to be
beyond any ones comprehension. Every survivor's story is unique
and special but the accomplishments of battered women have to be
among the highest on the "list".
People who face long term illnesses have to go through several
stages in their fight. These stages normally start with
disbelief which then turns into anger and despair. It normally
takes the person to hit rock bottom before they find their
strength to start fighting for their life. This rock bottom is
were people either accept that they are going to die or they
flat out refuse to accept it and start fighting with all they
have in order to stay alive.
Accident victims normally have no warning that their life is in
jeopardy and are therefore not prepared for what is about to
happen to them. Survivors of horrific accidents are nothing but
living miracles. What actually keeps them alive despite claims
from doctors saying there is no way anyone could have made it
through such an accident.
To all your survivors out there, put your fortune to good and
use it to inspire others who find themselves in a similar
situation you once faced. Perhaps with your help they can become
survivors too.
