Courage

What is courage?
Is it the absence of fear? No I think it is the strength to do something despite being scared.

Sometimes courage means saving a puppy from a burning building, or saving the world from the invasion of the Swedish nannies.
But othertimes, it could be a simple act like forcing yourself to get out of bed, not taking verbal or any form of abuse and removing yourself from that type of situation in the future.

Courage does not dress itself in a superhero outfit, be 6ft tall and have a perfect smile. It could be a 5 year old who has to adapt to her parents divorce, it could a devastated heart broken parent realising that the past is a burning ruin and not having the slightest clue what to do next.
It is a hug to a 44 year old man whose heart and soul have been raped and simply committing to be there for him no matter what.

Courage is the tiny voice that shatters the silence.

Nite all
