Words I live by from Amelia Earhart - Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no relief from little things, knows not the livid loneliness of fear, nor mountain heights where bitter joy can hear the sound of wings. When did you last feel joy?

Courage is reaching deep down inside yourself and facing your fears, so that when your fears rear their face, you know how to engage them. When I was involved in an accident in an ambulance in 2006, I thought I would never set foot on an ambulance again, Now, in 2011, i work for a service based in the Texas Med. Center, I am a firefighter and First responder for my Fire dept. Courage is gained as we battle. Courage is not something you are just given...you face the things you fear and you gain courage...so that you can beat down your enemy every time after that...

Courage is like Bethany Hamilton because she never gave up and stayed on the board. Courage is when you go out of your comfort zone and do something new or rise above challenges. Courage is to keep trying and never give up. Courage is never giving up even when you face your fears. Courage is having the nerve to do something new.

Courage is standing to challenge the same force that many would turn tail and run from. Courage is having the willingness to risk something of yours for somthing of someone else.

Logan from Kent, Washington

Courage is rushing in where others run out. It's when one can stand up where others hide behind them. Courage is being a voice for someone who has none. Courage is not fighting fire with fire, but being able to run up there and stamp out the flames. Courage is shutting up whatever your gut says and doing what your heart is screaming to do.

Courage is when your heart tells you to do something but your mind and knowledge of something keeps you from doing it. Anyway sometimes we have to overcome our fears, and build the courage it takes to do what we fear regardless of what the outcome might be. Having courage can do remarkable things and take you places you’ve never imagined.
