They deceived you when they said: The blows that do not kill you make you stronger…

Let me tell you about the survivors of fatal blows:

Survivors of fatal blows can tell you about the fear that haunts them for the rest of their lives; the fear of the days ahead, the fear of a new blow. They can tell you about how they lost their sense of safety and trust in others, and perhaps even trust in themselves.

Survivors of fatal blows suffer from a kind of emotional numbness; they become indifferent. Nothing saddens them, nothing makes them happy. They have come to know well the truth that nothing lasts.

Survivors of fatal blows live alone; no matter how crowded the world is around them, they know very well that everyone will flee from them should they receive another blow.

Fatal blows, my friend, teach selfishness and cruelty.

Fatal blows make you strong; no one knows a thing about the rubble you carry inside. ✍️
