Answer 8

Courage, to me, is having the mental strength to do something you never thought you could do.  That could mean anything from losing extra weight or doing something daring like skydiving.  Courage is also having extra motivation to go against the flow of the world.  Making yourself different than most people in the world today by living right and raising a family that actually sits at the table together for dinner every night (or some other "cliche" of a functional family).  Someone who knows what they want and doesn't care what others think about it.  Someone that would rather be alone if it meant compromising who they are and their beliefs.  It takes courage to be a good person - not a good background or "up bringing."

Answer 9

I looked at this question earlier and the i came back. and your comments were very challenging So her it is big boy.MY courage come when i have been emotionally pressed I do not have to prove my self to anyone there is only one God and i don't note that he is walking this earth in the human form right now. My courage comes when i see that someone needs help emotional or physically. My courage come when someone challenges me that i am not the best that i can be or that i do not have entitlement to my God given rights. Sometimes my courage comes when i must keep my mouth shut when it is int the best interest of another that can not bring up the courage to stand for themselves. (in the world that they live in.) And yes i do live i live it out so much that even i have to call me stupid i can not stand back and watch injustice. OK for example my 4 kids were in high school and i would pick them up a block away. of coarse there were kids fighting all the time and getting kicked out of school. but for the 6  years that i was picking up my kids there was minimal amount of fighting and ciggeret smoking and pot smoking, due to the fact that there was a5'4" 140 pounds black ladie who would not allow them to fight or smoke or do drugs. i had gotten up in the face of many angry young boys in the middel of their fights who didn't know me,.And had no reason to honnor me. But i did not see anybody go to jail. or get kicked out of school. I was even called to the principals office, they wanted me to work as a volunteer. As funny as that was i had to refuse because then i could not speak or get up in there faces they way that i did to be effective. So yes i do. live what i speak... Courage for me is standing in what you believe in and not accepting others to push their wrong actions on to you, or someone who couldtn't stand for themself. Note: My Courage

Courage is doing something you know is right, and not afraid of the consequences of your actions.  Knowing that you are going to cause someone harm or pain but still going through with it because it will be best for them in the long term.  Basically to put others before yourself.
