You are like the woman in this card who offers love and patience to the ferocious lion in order to be able to tame him. You give others space and you are tolerant of their needs. You are accepting and can easily forgive any imperfections.

The qualities of Strength are already in you, waiting to appear once you have mastered all your raw, foundational emotions and when you are ready to move on to the spiritual tasks that lie ahead. Its main lesson is that emotions must be transcended if spiritual wisdom and intuition are to be awakened. Your inner voice is often drowned out by the constant noise of emotion and preoccupation with fear. Only once you have eliminated these raw emotions can you begin to create the silence you need. So conquer your fears, control your impulses, and never lose patience with yourself or what you are doing. Eventually you will see the wisdom of letting go of your lower self. The Strength archetype teaches you that you have the strength to tame the beasts within yourself. Meditating on this card can assist your process of honoring and experiencing the inherent strength that is within your nature. It may seem impossible but love, kindness and a brave heart can bring them into balance. The appearance of the Strength Tarot card indicates a time when you need to be very conscious of your instinctual urges and reactions, and bring them into balance with the greater good and meaning in life. This is not a time to act out in rage or in hatred but instead to look at the situation from a place of love and compassion.</description><title>Rae a la Mode!</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @raealamode)</generator><link>http://raealamode.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>unkindlovingv2:

&lt;p&gt;if my future husband doesn’t have a reaction like this i’m walking right back out and saying “alright let’s try this again”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“You know when the bride makes her entrance and everybody turns to look at her? That’s when I look at the groom. Cause his face says it all you know, there’s pure love there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I like to glance back at the poor bastard getting married. Cause even though I think he’s an idiot for willingly entering into the last legal form of slavery, he always looks really, really happy”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Why Can’t We Be Happy?
We all strive to reach...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/adb138b0398765041cd5a7c4003ddeef/tumblr_mfhhdn5sS21qe5q3go1_500.gif"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://aadambautistaa.tumblr.com/post/39540690545/why-cant-we-be-happy-we-all-strive-to-reach-our" target="_blank"&gt;aadambautistaa&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Can’t We Be Happy?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all strive to reach our goals. Our dreams. Sometimes it feels like were just all trying to reach that point when we can start living life rather than catch up to it. We all wish that we make it to the future where happiness is suppose to greet us in open arms. That desire that the world would make sense maybe when we’re older. That hopefully we would of found the one and know what it’s like to be in love. That we would have that job that brings us so much joy and excited to wake up everyday. That just maybe, in the future, we might feel a bit less loss than we do right now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But that’s the problem. That we’re always to concentrated in reaching happiness. Like it’s a far off distant thing instead of realizing that happiness can be reached at this very moment. That our dreams can come true right at this moment. And that love can be found right now. That everything we desire is possible without having to wait years from now. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We envision a future of perfection while forgetting that we live in an imperfect world. There will always be hardships. There will always be many times when we feel loss. Sometimes I think we just use the future as an excuse of not trying to find happiness right now because were too afraid it doesn’t exist…that were striving for something that not even there. But tell me, wouldn’t it be amazing to be happy while on our journey to the rest of our lives?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even though it can be really hard, I do try to make the most of now. I know that the people who are in my life now may not be later, that I may not have the same opportunities as I do now. So, as much as I can manage, I try to enjoy today.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://raealamode.tumblr.com/post/50579131879</link><guid>http://raealamode.tumblr.com/post/50579131879</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 May 2013 10:59:48 -0400</pubDate><dc:creator>mermaidcarnivale</dc:creator></item><item><title>aadambautistaa:

Hope
I understand that this world we live in...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/fb300f8bebf2ffd61080279252e13063/tumblr_mhmrrs7hdV1qe5q3go1_500.gif"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://aadambautistaa.tumblr.com/post/42171525065/hope-i-understand-that-this-world-we-live-in-can" target="_blank"&gt;aadambautistaa&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hope&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I understand that this world we live in can be a cruel, depressing, and unjust place. I’m aware that at this moment, someone is freezing as they are living on the streets with no place to call home. There is someone who is getting bullied for being gay, ‘fat’, or a ‘nerd’ as ignorance gets the better of men. There are people fighting depression beneath a mask of a smile as their screams for help go unheard. So is it wrong that I still have so much hope for this world and the people in it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To be honest, I can’t blame those who have lost hope in humanity. We live in society where it’s easy to look into a newspaper or turn on a television set and see that murder, rape, and abuse is all too common. And in our lives, we suffer through these tragedies that break us and our faith. Sometimes, we even see these monsters when we look into a mirror, realizing that it has made a home in you. You feel like you’re part of this unfair place where you’re a chained prisoner surrounded by an inescapable darkness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So why do I still have hope? Maybe it’s because I don’t think so many people would be sadden or bothered by it if they didn’t have this feeling there is better out there. That life is not suppose to be this cruel, and we will never find this better life if we stop trying. And amidst all the darkness that you try to escape from, you realize there are many people with you trying to fight it too. That good people still exist in this world. That you’re not alone. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We All Grow Up.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See that person that’s in front of you when you look into a mirror. One day that person will become a stranger to you. That person will have different interests, different beliefs, different friends, and a different everything.That person may even be buried in the past one day and forgotten. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We all grow up. Most the time, we blame life and the world for constantly changing on us, without realizing that we’re changing with it too. We grow into something unexpected and become a version of ourselves that we didn’t think could exist. And each time we look back at old pictures or recall old memories, we see that you’re no longer that same kid playing freeze tag outside. No longer that person who believed in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. And no longer kid who was just who was excited turning 10 because they finally hit an age with double digits. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Change is not always a bad thing though. We can grow up to become more intelligent and courageous, we can grow up and make new memories with friends that we have yet to meet, and if we’re lucky, we can one day grow up and fall in love. So as the sand pours down an hourglass and as you can hear the seconds tick away from an old grandfathers clock - who do you think you will be when you grow up and look into the mirror one day?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://beben-eleben.tumblr.com/post/50415502866/there-once-was-a-young-boy-with-a-very-bad-temper" target="_blank"&gt;beben-eleben&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. The boy’s father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;It wasn’t long before the little boy discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Then, the day finally came when the little boy didn’t lose his temper even once, and he became so proud of himself, he couldn’t wait to tell his father.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pleased, his father suggested that he now pull out one nail for each day that he could hold his temper.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Several weeks went by and the day finally came when the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Very gently, the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“You have done very well, my son,” he smiled, “but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The little boy listened carefully as his father continued to speak.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“When you say things in anger, they leave permanent scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you’re sorry, the wounds will still be there.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I really want to appreciate this but do you know how much of a bitch it’s gonna be to replace that fence?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;THE LAST FUCKING PARAGRAPH NEEDS TO BE SENT TO MY ASSHOLE “FRIENDS”.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
