These motivational posters these days: usually the words you'll read beneath an irrelevant but still colorfully beautiful photograph are the postermaker's definition of strength: "Don't give up. Never give up. Keep fast, keep strong, keep vigilant, keep persistent."
It wasn't until this year that I'd encountered people who, with their lives and stories of sad ordeals, their trials and their ne'er-fore revealed personalities, have unknowingly taught me that sometimes, it's true strength that's needed to let things gently go.
