CourageSeptember 7, 1983Copyright © 1997 Property of Deborah K. Fletcher. All rights reserved.Courage is the ability to face whatever may happen to you without trying to run away. A courageous man is a man who can stand up against any foe, be merciful to that foe, and accept the possibility of death as a result of mercy, without flinching. Courage is the way a man thinks. If he is able to aid others in the face of some danger to himself, and know what he is doing and what he must face, he is courageous. Courage is unshakable resolution in the face of adversity. It is the splendid heroism of a man sure of life. It is a bold disregard for danger one is aware exists. One of man's greatest virtues is courage. It is having the confidence, manliness, and grit that are necessary to face perils beyond mortal belief or imagination. It is the ability to be loyal and true to one's friends and loved ones when the going gets rough. Courage is one of the things that held our country together and the lack of courage is what will make our country die, for as long as there is courage and manliness, nothing can ever destroy man. He will always win as long as he is courageous. Please View and Sign My Guestbook
