My grandmother was! We called her BaBa. She was born in Russia came over in the 20s and died at 98 still believing that men never landed on the moon. She was a very prayerful woman with rock hard beliefs in practicing her religion. Laughed at everything and ate everything on her plate. Simple is good!

Hey Jayden, Great question. Sorry to give the most obvious answer - God! You know how everyone lets you down sooner or later? Your best friend. Someone you have trusted for years. Your siblings. Even your parents. I have the most fantastic parents, but you know what, they cannot match God's consistency. Hope I am allowed to quote the Bible, because it says: "...he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. (Hebrews 13:5)" That is absolutely true. That's my experience... "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)" That is just a tiny sample... What a friend! What a promise! What security! Your friend, Richard |

I think that I don't have one. I'm just emotionally strong.

My husband is my rock. Whether a good day or a bad day he is my biggest supporter. Although sometimes it can get a bit overwhelming when I go to get my teeth cleaned and all the dental assistants want to talk about what I do. Kind of makes it hard to have a conversation when people have their hands in my mouth! lol |

My mother is my rock. He's so loving and dear. When ever I'm in a challenging situation, she's always there to guide me. She's my best friend. We can talk to each other for hours and never get tired of each other. When we're together, it seems as though we haven't seen each other in years. I call her my beautiful angel. And that... she is.

I'd say I'm my own pillar of strength. Mainly because I don't like to rely on others for that in case they're no longer there. At least I know I always have myself.

Sybiz and Johnny Depth, I'm right there with you. I cherish my time with my friends and family and often use them for support or vice versa. When it comes down to it, I am my own motivator and/or demon. People now and then can waver my thoughts or direction, but no-one picks me up from the ground but myself. I could be singing to a different tune if I were married, but for now that's my song and I'm sticking to it! Thanks Jayden, good thoughts |

I also have God as my rock. I pray a lot to Him for strength. I also love my family deeply and I would do anything for them. My two cents. Dagmar |

Hi, Without any shadow of a doubt, my lover, soul mate, best friend and wife of over 40 years, Jane. We've been up, we've been down and we have ridden the rapids and are still riding them today. She is a writer, poet,musician and artist and most of all she helped me believe in myself many years ago when self confidence was hard to find. Dave |

I found it interesting that no one mentioned their pastor, priest or even Jesus or any of the other prophets. How about a teacher or a best friend? For me, my friend Jeanette is a person I can share my innermost feelings to without being judged, What a great feeling |

Hi Everyone, I would have to say that my pillar of strength is me and so far I have no had regrets. If you are not a pillar of strength and companion to yourself first, then you cannot successfully find those qualities in any one else, because you would not truly know what they really mean. To my mind, being your own best friend and getting to know who you are, are the greatest gifts anyone can give to themselves.....people you come in contact with......and the creator. Here is where they would find true strength and happiness which can be taught to others so that they in turn can become strong and happy themselves. Regards rouse9. |

There are those that I can always turn to (family, a close friend), but I have learned to be open to those who show up just when I need them - whether I realize it at the time or not. That may be a word of advise, a helping hand from a stranger, or even just a smile across a distance...

I would have to say that person for me would be Jim Rohn. He has a certain business as well as personal philosophy that resonates to everyone from every walk of life. When I find myself questioning if I am doing the right thing I just listen to one of his CD's or read a couple of chapters from one of his books, and it helps me to remember just how important I am to this world also. Thanks and make it a great day. Randy |

I'd have to say my past successes. Whenever I feel bad, I think of the past successes I've had. Speaking in front of groups of 600, acing a final exam, getting a girls phone number, etc. Ultimately I can't depend on anyone else, I have to get that strength from within. It's the only thing that will last as long as I'm alive. M |

Might sound arrogant, but I am my own pillar. No one has the dedication I do to my own dreams and when I feel weak I simply think about the fact that anything worth having is worth working hard for.

My Mom...I watched her struggle my whole life....close down, broken heart and defeated, but still fought hard to make us all better people and prayed for everyone. She fought a Breast Cancer that was brutal (IBC) and didn't once give up or succum to meds. She believed she was where God wanted her to be and refused to let man sway her. God Bless her...she was a strong lady! She died a very honorable death. He win was in heaven! R.I.P. LaVena Torres!

My Ex-Boss is pillar of Strength for me... When ever I need motivation I used to remember the way he does things. The way he handles hundreds of people daily... It really motivates me and help me regain to the energy level where I can stand to the difficult situations. Thanks Zahidjee...... |

I use to call a good friend, and even went to a counsellor but if it is meant to be it is up to me. Get clear and listen to your gut feeling.
