week 4 dp #1

Courage is not defined as just an act of heroism. Courage is a powerful emotion that serves many great duties. It takes a lot for humans to overcome their fears. Many people are scared of something everyday. It takes not only accepting and overcoming your fears to be courageous but to be confident that what you are standing for is more important than your fears. When you are acting out of courage your fears do not matter. A lot of miracles result from acts of courage. If humans were not able to find the existence of our own courage then as a society we would not be so developed. We would not have saved lives, or fought to end unjust laws. Terrible things have happened over the years and things had to be changed. In order to make these must needed changes someone had to act out of courage. Someone had to overcome many obstacles within oneself and outsiders. We must be confident in our abilities, our minds are a powerful thing that can be controlled. Courage is not a negative emotion, fear is a negative emotion and the world does not need any more fear. The world needs more courage and the deep love of something you believe in.

  1. So many times people use the fear that others have to be shown as having courage. You are very correct that people have fears everyday, it's how they react to their own fears that could make them courageous. I believe that courage = miracles and vice versa. It only takes one person to initially show courage the help others feel stronger and they too get their own courage. I agree...the world does need more courage...you yourself have demonstrated courage for writing this spin on the word courage. Bet you didn't think of it that way.
