Default Re: What Have You Done That Needed Courage?

Defended myself from my girlfriend's lunatic boyfriend who broke into my house and stabbed me. Although in a situation like that, it's hard to say what's courageous, since I didn't really have time to be scared.

That's actually how it's always been for me in near-death incidents. But I think that life-preserving instinct has something to do with courage. Not quite the same as screwing up the guts to put yourself in a situation like that voluntarily, but not folding under pressure is worth something IMO.
