when the going gets tough, i still keep going. i never runaway with something because i think that it's the tough experiences that best contribute to our personal growth and learnings about life. i admit that there are times that i do breakdown and cry but after the tears, i fix myself, get up and still go where i am suppose to go no matter how hard or tough it may be.

I'm a practising coward so I run away.

When the going gets tough I tend to do a lot of yelling and screaming at anything and everything in sight . Eventually I cool down enough to talk about it with my husband or a friend . This generally makes me feel much better .

When the going gets touch... i keep going. i have to, i really have no choice, because i have three kids that depend on me. And a hubby that depends on me. I think if i fall apart he wouldnt know what in the world to do. I feel that our world turns because of me... and if i wasn't there, then it would fall apart to peices.
