We often think that the only people who are courageous are those who are the biggest, strongest or the most respected in the community. We think that we ourselves can’t be courageous. We continually fall back and think that somebody else will eventually come along with enough courage to do the job. Courage doesn’t mean you have to be the biggest, strongest or smartest. Those who are courageous are those who can be the biggest, strongest, or smartest at a given time. Courage is believing in yourself when nobody else does. When everybody turns the other way, when the other road seems easier, when it’s just you, that’s when failure tests you. Courage is getting up and moving forward after you fail. Courage is looking your failures in the eye and saying, “you won’t beat me today.” Courage is not backing down from your fears. Don’t turn the lights on. When you’re engulfed in darkness, you being courageous will automatically lighten the way for others. Courage is doing what’s right, when everyone else is doing the wrong. Courage is losing all sense of fear. Courage is handling diversity. Courage is looking yourself in the mirror at night and telling yourself I did the best I could today to make the world a better place. Don’t be afraid to be courageous and don’t be afraid to make a change in the world. Everyone of us have something to give. Have the courage to find what that something is.
