courage

Do you think of yourself as courageous? Perhaps you think of courage as something only for soldiers in combat or those who must face hazards and threats to carry out some noble mission. Do you think that courage cannot apply to you if you don’t fit into one of these categories? I tell you that every person faces the pressure and temptation to present themselves as something other than what they really are. Have you ever tried to appear better than you really are to gain the acceptance and approval of those around you? How well did this work? Every person has the opportunity to live courageously in openly being the person I created them to be.
