Rose’s Stories
Night Shift at Five Years Old
When I was five years old, my mother would leave me alone all night to take care of my baby siblings while she worked.
I don’t think people understand what that does to a child—being responsible for keeping babies alive when you’re barely out of diapers yourself. My earliest memory isn’t of playing with toys or learning to read. It’s of a crying baby at 2 AM and knowing that if something went wrong, there was no one else coming.
There was no choice in it. When a baby cries at 2 AM and you’re the only one there, you don’t get to say “I can’t handle this.” You just handle it.
Night after night, crisis after crisis, I learned that strength isn’t something you find when you’re ready for it. It’s something that gets hammered into you when life gives you no other option. Every sleepless night I spent rocking a crying baby, every mess I cleaned up, every decision I had to make alone—it was building something in me I didn’t even know I needed.
By the time I was a teenager, other kids would fall apart over things that seemed small to me. Not because I was better than them, but because I’d already been through my breaking-in period. I’d already learned that you can survive a lot more than you think you can, you can do a lot more than you think you can.
Today, at 64, I’m raising my grandchildren and running my own business. People sometimes ask how I manage it all, how I always seem to know what to do. The truth is, I learned early that life doesn’t wait for you to feel prepared. You just do what needs doing, one decision at a time.
The hardest moments don’t break us—they teach us we’re stronger than we ever imagined we’d need to be.
Rooted, Not Rigid
Those who learn to bend without breaking become unbreakable
I didn’t grow up in a house where life moved gently. It felt more like living inside a storm—noise, chaos, kids everywhere, emotions running hot. I was the oldest, which meant I was the one expected to catch whatever fell, even when it wasn’t mine to carry.
My mother was doing the best she could with almost nothing. As a kid, I didn’t see the sacrifice, only the weight. I just knew that if something went wrong, the grown-ups weren’t the ones who would swoop in. It was usually me. By ten years old, I knew how to change diapers, make lunch out of a loaf of bread and a jar of peanut butter, settle crying siblings, and make judgment calls no child should have to make. It wasn’t bravery—it was survival.
There’s one memory that still rises to the surface, even decades later. I was around ten, and my mom had left us with the usual marching orders—no bottles for the baby; she has to drink from a cup now. This was her rule, and breaking one of her rules never went over well. She’d go out to bingo to breathe for a while, and my father, kind as he was to me, was often too deep in the bottle to be much use.
That night my little sister, only two years old, had made an impossible mess. A full-body, full-playpen catastrophe. I remember staring at it, feeling that mix of nausea and resignation only a kid trying to be an adult can feel. I carried her to the bathroom, cleaned her, soothed her, wrapped her in a towel. And then I looked at the cup sitting on the counter and thought, Absolutely not. I’m not fighting her on this tonight.
I made my own call—my first real act of quiet rebellion. I gave her the bottle.
I knew it would upset my mother. I also knew that in that moment my job wasn’t to follow the rules—it was to do what actually worked. What would help. What would calm the storm instead of adding to it.
That was one of the first times I realized something important: staying rigid breaks you. Staying flexible saves you.
Life didn’t get simpler as I grew up. Marriage, children, heartbreak, betrayal that cut deep, the responsibility of raising grandchildren, managing a household on my own, helping my daughter through her struggles, juggling sports schedules and illnesses and long drives through rural roads… it has been a long, loud, beautiful, exhausting road. There were days I bent so far I thought I’d snap.
But every time life pushed, I learned to shift with it. Not collapse—shift.
That’s the part people don’t see when they call me strong. They think strength is about holding everything together with tight, rigid hands. My strength comes from knowing when to loosen my grip. When to adjust. When to choose peace over perfection. When to give the baby the bottle, even if someone else insists on the cup.
Today, at 64, I can say this with clarity: the things I once thought would break me were actually the things that taught me how to stand—rooted, flexible, unshakeable in the ways that matter. I don’t crumble easily because I’ve already learned how to bend.
And if there’s anything I want another person to take from my story, it’s this:
You don’t have to hold yourself stiff against every storm. Let yourself sway. Let yourself adapt. That’s not weakness—it’s wisdom.
The world doesn’t build unbreakable people through perfection or control.
It builds them through resilience that knows how to move.
Wisdom in the Deck
Card 1: Strength isn’t chosen; it’s forged in the moments when giving up isn’t an option
Theme: This card speaks to the truth that strength isn’t born from comfort—it’s shaped in the moments when surrender isn’t an option. It reminds the reader that the pressure they feel isn’t punishment but transformation, and that what looks like a breaking point may actually be the start of becoming someone new, steadier, and far more powerful than before.
Card 2: Those who learn to bend without breaking become unbreakable
Theme: This card carries the wisdom of adaptive strength—the kind that survives not by resisting life’s storms, but by learning how to move within them. It reminds the reader that flexibility is not a loss of power, but its evolution. When circumstances demand change, this card affirms that staying rooted in your values while adjusting your approach creates a resilience that cannot be shaken. What bends with intention does not shatter; it endures, grows wiser, and emerges stronger through every season of change.
