Some days you need more courage than others or at least it feels that way. When the days become unbearable to get up in the morning for fear of the unknown, you need a little courage. When there is too much pressure from family and work, you need a little courage. Your parents are sick and your driving them back and forth from the hospital, working and taking care of your family, you need a little courage. The bills are piling up and the debt collectors will not leave you alone, you need a little courage. Your husband is in the military and has been deployed overseas, you need a little courage. You were just laid off from your job and you don’t know what your going to do, you need a little Courage.
The definition of Courage is the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear. Life can test our limits sometimes. There are times when fear of the unknown can be overwhelming. Courage is an important quality to get you through these time. An inner strength and knowledge that everything will work out. It helps you get up in the morning, make a plan and go to work. Courage is a great quality that pushes us to get to another level in our journey of life.
I would like to think of every day as an opportunity to learn something new. When challenges are presented to you, know that you have the courage and strength to overcome them and become a better person in the end. I love this quote from Alan Cohen “It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.”
Here are some beautiful products to remind you of the courage you possess everyday!
