Courage

Courage. It is sometimes an elusive entity. Sometimes it's there and is unrecognized by oneself or others around them. Sometimes, that courage is fake or simply held in place by a thread. True courage is never faked even when it is small but growing. There is a reality to it that can be felt. Other times, that courage it is attacked by those who lack it or are ungrateful.

Courage. Sometimes one sees in looking in hindsight. An entity that existed back then, but was not recognized at the time, but is today.  A piece of existence that can be acknowledged and appreciated now when it was not felt back then.

Courage. A gift not to be taken lightly. Not to be opened and offered to those who will not appreciate the gift. It is the walking forward into the vulnerable. Walking forward into the uncomfortable. It is the standing tall and following God's direction in the face of adversity.

Courage. S
ometimes, it is the acceptance of God's will in the face of deep sorrow. Accepting the path that has been placed before me even though it is not what I have chosen for myself.  It is walking forward when there is sorrow on the horizon knowing that God has a plan and a purpose some place beyond the black clouds of today.

Courage. It is ALWAYS a divine gift.
