Turning Cheek
When the world serves up a heavy hit to the soul, it's tempting to try and retaliate, and make things even.
This piece reminds me that with grace and strength you can pull your power from a deeper place and turn your cheek. Hold your head up high in your vulnerability, and rise up from darkness.
