I have a special affinity for anything that alludes to growth. Just the word itself lends a certain aspect of hope and optimism, which for a "woe-is-me" personality, I desperately need at times. One of my favorite definitions:
GROW: 1. to arise or issue as a natural development from an original
happening, circumstance, or source
2. to come to be by degrees; become
ARISE...I like that. Like a Phoenix from the ashes. I'm constantly amazed at how I beat myself down, let others dictate my self-worth, or forget to count my daily blessings. My friend Stephanie bought me the coffee cup and I absolutely love it.
It's a wonderful reminder that I am strong enough to get through things, no matter how insurmountable they might seem at the time. Also, despite the avalanche of emotion that sometimes overtakes me, I will arise and become. I encourage everyone to remember everyday that it is okay to GROW.
