Yes and Yes and Yes again...... I think however the definition of strength can get lost in the word power. Some times knowledge and the theory of knowledge can hinder our spiritual development. I hear you askin`, What ? (or may be not Hee Hee) any way, sometimes it is wisdom that encourages us to say nothing rather than strength. Some one seeking answers may benefit greatly from working it out themselves, and thus become stronger, rather than receiving the answer from us and never knowing the reason why. In other circumstances there is strength in lying quiet and letting things unfold as they undoubtedly will until reason is called for..........I would love to practice this all the time but, If I keep at it I`ll get there hee hee hee

Yes. Everyone has heard of the quiet before the storm, right? Also, to be humble is the greatest strength there is. Ever heard of Quiet Riot? Ah rest mah case!

The strongest and most enduring philosophical revelations
come at times of the least distraction....and through long
periods of silence. It gives the subconscious room to
come to the surface...and that entity knows everything
that you need for great self understanding and peacefulness.
Words are manipulative by their very nature, but the
greatest relationships don't need them.

Some of it yes. Or if you prefer there is an unsuspected strength in some quiet places and moments. The biggest is in our hearts.

Hi Rena, I believe that inner strength can lay dormant within us.So with the proper excess ,Through the right channels.I can tap into the quiet flowing stream of energy.From the inner foundation.Which all humans process within their being.A way to calm the storm ,And to heal the heart.

Tough question, Rena.
I think that is possible for when a thing is in its dormancy, it is this stage power or strength is accumulated. This is more intense for it draws its energy whice in trance. Indeed be watchful when this strength is used for a tremendous vitality in on the board.

Strength is meaningless and is often only useful to offset feelings of powerlessness.
I'm fine with being weak or strong and anywhere in between. These are just words about concepts. They have no tangible existence in the world.

part of wisdom is knowing what not to say... not just having the right answers and being the first say them. saying something doesn't make it right, and having the knowledge inside is as great as saying it out loud. therefore, strength is not necessarily something you demonstrate, but something you possess. some times self restraint proves to take greater strength than outward demonstrations of power.

Empty barrels make the most sound. The hunter stalks in silence, and pounces with a still mind and heart.
