Living with courage means to catch the dagger by the handle and use it as a tool to our advantage. It is tremendous tool when used constructively. It gives us the ability to be assertive and resist being paralyzed. Lack of courage destroys our ability to act. We are turned into bodies that walk, talk and breathe but remain spiritually dead. Courage is living by one’s own values. It is moving forward with the belief that your actions are worthwhile. Courageous people always believe that something inside them is superior to their external circumstances. The difference between getting somewhere and reaching nowhere in life is courage. Courage demands taking risk, venturing into the unknown, facing obstacles, opposition, embarassement and criticism
