Courage XIII
"COURAGE... It's just another word for inner strength, presence of mind against odds, determination to hang in there, to venture, persevere, and withstand hardship. It's got keeping power... It's what makes the amputee reject pity and continue to take life by the throat. It's what forces every married couple having trouble never to say, 'Let's terminate.' It's what encourages the divorcee to face tomorrow. It's what upholds the young mother with kids in spite of a personal energy crisis... Every day, in some way, your courage will be tested. Your test may be as simple as saying, 'No,' as uneventful as facing a pile of dirty laundry, or as unknown and unheralded as an inner struggle between right and wrong. God's medal-of-honor winners are made in secret because most of their courageous acts occur deep down inside."
