courage |ˈkʌrɪdʒ|
noun
the ability to do something that frightens one : she called on all her courage to face the ordeal.
• strength in the face of pain or grief : he fought his illness with great courage
ORIGIN Middle English (denoting the heart, as the seat of feelings): from Old French corage, from Latin cor ‘heart.’
To be truly courageous, you have to be prepared to work hard I think; to have patience and persistence. You have to persevere through all the frustration, worry, angst, FEAR. Some pretty uncomfortable times are inevitable. You have to trust the choices you make. Like giving up my job. That was a pretty big decision and one that I celebrated. I had to have faith that I'd be able to make money to survive no matter what. I'm alive and happy! I had to take a risk.
In life, we have to push our boundaries to move forward, for change. We have to keep widening our experience. We have to have courage. We have to listen to our hearts and explore the possibilities. In doing so, we can only get stronger.
