Default Re: What Have You Done That Needed Courage?

too many things to list them all...but the thing thats oddly taken the most courage but the least time of me reflecting or thinking on it is learning about and dealing with a chronic/possibly terminal issue within my body

other things have been...
leaving everything i know and going basically alone to a 3rd world country and not speakin the language
hiking the for weeks at a time
learning to do all the new things ive tried - from whitewater rafting to repelling
my mom having a heart attack
raising my 2 younger brothers while i was in college for some time
being confronted with a bear in the middle of nowhere
dealing with someone being hurt badly and unconscious
finding out im lost in the middle of the national forest

hahah and many other things...i guess its all how u look at it...but for me these r all times where i had choices majorly looming over me that were going to result in a massive outcome...i had to push down and ignore anything negative and focus no matter what...inside me thats courage
