Diary Dialogue

Myrtle: I think I shielded you way too much. Now you’ve got to get out there and stand on your own two feet.

Helen: I can’t do that. I’m not strong like you.

Myrtle: Sure you are. You’ve got the strength God gave us women to survive. You just ain’t tapped into it yet.

(Helen crying)

Myrtle: Just let it go. Nothing is wrong with shedding a few tears. It cleanses the soul, you know? You need to stop thinking about what you think you lost, and look forward to what there is to gain. It’s a new life baby. It’s right in front of you; all you got to do is reach out and grab it.

Helen: How do I do that momma? How?

Myrtle: By waking up every morning and thanking God that you did. And then ask Him to help you. Just ask the Savior to help you.
