15 QUALITIES OF A STRONG WOMAN

"A strong woman loves who she is, trust her instincts, speaks her mind and doesn't take crap from anyone."

You, right there, reading this, you ARE a strong woman. You may not feel that way right now but you are. You care for your kids, you do your work, whether inside the home or out, you prepare dinner for the family, you take care of them when they are not feeling well, you have time to help your kids with homework, and you may have even over come some health challenges.  Sure, you may have said at the time, "Why me?"  But now you are much stronger for it, and that's what life is all about.  Learning and growing from life's lessons.

How strong are you emotionally?  Here is a list of my favorite qualities of strong women. Maybe you don't have all of these right now, maybe just a few, maybe one or two, but it is something to strive for to become a better person, a better mom, a better wife and an overall better human being.
