“Instead of showing you how to build courage," I wrote in response to someone asking me how to be brave, "I write to you to pay tribute to and salute your courage. I embrace your courage. I lie down every night living your courage. When I am in need of purpose of focus I thank your courage. Courage is not an ongoing thing that you walk around feeling ever day. Like anything in life, it comes and goes with the challenges we meet every day of our lives!”
