It's National Motivation Day! Remember this . . . a strong woman isn't loud in her strength; she's steady, unshakable and quietly fierce. Her power lies in the battle she fights that no one knows about, the tears she dries in private and the dreams she refuses to let die. Strength doesn't always roar; sometimes, it whispers, "Keep going!"
