I am not sure if I have already posted this meme here before but I found it in one of my “Memories” on Facebook last New Year’s Day. Sharing it with you again. I just love the message it brings.
Courage.
How many of us at one point in our lives needed this word and we had to act on it? How many times have we planned something to do but we lack the courage to pursue? How much time have we spent seesawing in our decision because we lack the courage to stand pat and face the storms in our lives?
Courage.
A simple word but it takes maybe a few seconds or days and months to act on it. To quote Winston Churchill: “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” We may be brave but we lack enough courage to act on something. It is never too late or too early to do what we want to be. We can make the best of everything or just stand by and watch. We could start right now and be prepared to face the storm.
I have had courage to make some changes in my life in the past. These days, I want a quiet life, so probably lack the courage to do much anymore. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Oh well, there is really no age limit to show how courageous we are Pete, be it in our dealings with others or making important decisions in our lives.

It takes courage right now to continue to protest the way our countries are being run, especially since it opens us to verbal attacks.
